Hey brother! Saw you posting to some of the newbies. How's life?
Things are great, thank you my friend. Popped onto the board and it seems pretty quiet these days compared to 3-4 years ago....
Guess I'll give a few updated details for the newbies sake if they stop by:
i'm about 4.5 yrs from BD and the MR seems like an alien life a millenium ago. I know I lived that MR life but it no longer seems real. i'm about 5,000 to 10,000 times happier and more peaceful since. No resentment or hard feelings from me, I really don't even think about it.
Lots of social settings involving kids friends and their parents w/my X there and it continues to be easy as pie. So many parents have commended me (and I'm sure my X too) about how great it is that we can hang in the same setting. We are almost always separated and talking to different people though, which is fine by me LOL. True to form the X still takes the occasional shot at me with a sarcastically "joking but not joking" comment whenever she can which I know is coming and I have alot of fun with. The last 2 i can remember, once i just stared at her for 3 seconds and then turned back to the conversation with the other people there and said "sooo, anyway" which got a great response from everyone in the circle, and the other time i just smirked and said "charming, as always". It's so much fun because she is so predictable.
Dating is going pretty well, in would say the biggest speed bump is my limited time, i am busy as eff. Haven't been stoked enough to settle down so it's been more of a revolving door scenario which has been been fun but feels like it's running it's course and I feel pretty ready to sink into something more serious. In my life experience those types of R's tend to fall into my lap when I'm looking the other way so we'll see if that continues to hold true.
