Hope all is well for you. Today isn't that great for me. For some reason I feel anxious. Every once in a while the reality of my situation hits me and I start thinking that I truly am divorced and probably not getting back together with X. Sometimes it seems more like a game that I'll eventually win, but then I'm forced to wake up and smell the coffee. I lost a little of my edge, but hoping to get it back soon.
Some idle musings for the day and a question. My ex definitely is having self-esteem issues. Last month it was "Do you think I'm a good mother...tell me honestly" and I give her a list of why she is. This month it's "do my legs look fat? Or are they too sticklike?" Questioning herself isn't like her. Another thing that is unlike her is making no real effort to look good. I've seen her more without makeup and with her hair under a hat than any time during the marriage. She really hasn't been looking all that wonderful. My question is: Does anyone have any suggestions on how to provide the WOA I think she's looking for?
I don't know what I'm typing. My thoughts are disjointed today. I have been thinking maybe I'd have better success by just giving up and letting go. Maybe take a little of my X's "been there, done that" attitude and just "act as if" I've quit. I've hovered doing the same things for quite some time and have pretty much been in neutral. Probably time to try something else. I do need to focus on my own personal goals and my wants/needs.
