Welcome back Walking Back ~ glad to see you found time to tear yourself away from that young man and post No honestly, you seem to be in a much better place right now. Things can only keep getting better. Esp as you are starting to drop the rope with H.
The new interest has helped me to ‘drop the rope’ on H. I’m less consumed with thoughts of him and op. Sometimes I even feel angry with him – an emotion that I haven’t really had throughout this year. I’m beginning to see him without the blinding halo of “love” as a flesh and blood man who is making some really dodgy choices that I don’t condone. He’s been selfish and he continues to be selfish – not just with me, but with the boys and our friends. It’s all about him. I guess I have to work on letting those feelings go too.
I guess the first step is recognising those feelings so you are already part of the way down that path. Funny isn't it how we tend to see our partners through rose coloured glasses and then we start GAL we see things more clearly. Well that is how it has been in my case anyway.
Hang in there, this second act of our life promises to be a great one!
