Quote: However, alot of people tell me to give up and that reconciliation is unlikely if it hasn't happened yet.
I will keep going for now; but I am afraid of holding on too long.
People that care about you will always tell you to give up. What have you got to lose by making your life complete without her, but still having a little hope for reconciliation. Most of the advice you get from people that don't understand this process involves finding someone else. Plugging another person into the XW shaped hole in your heart doesn't work. Don't feel bad about finding it hard to unlove your XW. There isn't a timeframe for this. In my opinion, the clock on any future chances first started when she ended it with OM. So it hasn't been long at all. Keep your chin up.
