My head is held high, ovrrnbw. D is final. I'm no longer in a fog, completely blaming myself.
Since the D went final, XW is treating me like a BFF. I don't really have too much bitterness towards her. I think she's in a strange spot (in a fog herself), and she did what she felt she needed to do to be happy. I've made a conscious effort to treat her with integrity and humility--although I don't let her walk all over me. Not because I'm trying to win her back, but because that's just me and it's best for the girls. I've started to read the "No More Mr. Nice Guy" book and I don't think I have NGS. I'm a nice guy and chill, but that's because my Mom is like that. I definitely have some anti-NGS traits. Did others in this section of the forum get into a cordial, friendly relationship with their X soon after the D or is this not normal?
