More vague journaling, but I'm feeling good. Less angry and more indifferent the last couple of days. She's being more pleasant most of the time, but I still feel the same. Doing what I want to do, happy with either outcome. Now that I have learned all of the chess moves and she's become predictable to me, and I've detached quite a bit more, it's hard not to be happy. I'm excited about the future and in control of my emotions for the most part right now. It's been a while since I've felt this good. Years, even. I'm in the best physical shape of my life, I am in a great position for the dating world, I have plenty to do and lots of friends to lean on right now. Grateful.
oops, remember, earn your way out. Give your sitch the time it needs (I suggest at least a year) and make sure you deal with ALL emotions. Emotional baggage that isn't dealt with will bleed over into any new R, whether with your W or someone new. That was the biggest mistake I made in my original sitch in 2005. And it set me up for the same thing 12 years later.
Dating is way out in the future. Make sure you are working on yourself to be the healthiest emotionally you can be for the future!
