Gabriel,
My attitude around her could improve. Most times I'm upbeat, however the OM really sets me off. She has a picture of her and him taken in Cabo displayed in her living room. Its like a huge friggin magnet, I cant help but look at it. I know its totally unproductive. I see that picture, or imagine her spending time with him and it puts me in an angry mood. I usually say nothing at all or I'm a little short with her. The good news I realize this is something I have to overcome, and I'm getting better about it. I guess it makes me angry becasuse she seems to have moved on completely, and never appears to have looked back. Again, I just need to refocus my attention and stop going down this cheeseless tunnel.
Johndad,
I'm still on the fence about the whole thing. I'm not the kind of guy that can remain single. Honestly, I believe my X is more inclined to build a significant relationship with me if I was dating. What harm is there in going out with a few ladies? The fact is if I never put myself out there, I'll probably never find someone. Again, I firmly believe my X would be more apt to have a relationship after I start dating. However, I would never date someone to make her jealous. Again, I'm still on the fence.
