nef...my GAL is going well. it's definitely not crazy like climbing Everest or anything. i workout 5 days a week now like i used to and enjoy that a great deal, spend more time with my family than i used to, been going to all of those restaurants i've been meaning to try and it's not weird anymore going alone, always busy doing things with D when i have her and enjoying the time alone, reading/sleeping. i have some bigger GAL ideas in mind, but with the holidays coming on and winter they may be awhile. bottom line i'm content/happy with life given the reality of where i find myself.
d, for sure W has given me time and her being free of me has for sure made detachment easier, BUT thing is relative to how bad our MR was W went into abandonment mode. it's not a matter of me longing for the past. given the ghosting that's taken place while i loved her i gave up the hope and longing along time ago. and it's not a mind reading on my part about what W is doing or why. again well past caring about that. it's simply how did we go from an MR with things that needed work to BD where we basically don't even exist to each other.
anyway...please don't mis-interpret this as a regression/longing/pursuit desire on my part. here in the present it's just an occasional reflection on my part in trying to understand how we went from MR to dead to each other with no real show stopper issues "unless" a third party exists. i hope that makes some sense...
