Hi Nicole...

Well after a week plus of no contact, I decided to reach out to her to say hello on Saturday. Even if she's not interested anymore, no hard feelings and I'm fine with just being acquaintances. Anyway she replied quickly to my text and happily, but they were short replies...given her line of work she was busy this whole weekend so no reading into it too much. No further chatting between us since Saturday and like I say I'm cool with that. We had a friendly enough chat which basically confirmed to me that's all that's gonna happen with her. Plan to just let her go now. The chat was my interest test for her. Meeting her was helpful to me in many ways as I've previously mentioned. Next time I'll be more prepared with how to handle myself from the start with a new lady and expecting that she'll be local to me I'll move to set up a time for us to meet up instead of chatting/talking away on the phone.

D4 went back to W yesterday. No matter what else happens in my life, that is always sad. I imagine soon W will file for divorce. Long since gave up worrying about that. I know Stander has said his W was similar to mine in walking away, but in reading his sitch, my WW has always been WAY WAY more gone than his W was. Not one single chat/call/meetup/zippo from her on talking about our MR. Facing that there was nothing but for me to give it up.

All things considered I'm doing great. The only thing I wish is that I could have D4 in my life every single day. Beyond that, I'm doing very well. No idea what the future holds, but not stressing about it nor trying to push it. Several girl friends are encouraging me to get on a few dating sites and have fun with it. I will at some point I guess, just not a high priority for me. If I do, I'm more interested in seeing who comes to me than me going after anyone. Over the weekend I had a lady who I work with introduce me to her little sister. It's a humbling feeling to have ladies you know hold you in high enough regard to have them trying to set you up with their sisters. Anyway, that's my update. I haven't been on in a while, but hope that all is going well for you in your sitch as well. Plan to check in on you shortly.
