1.5 weeks since the break up. Haven't heard from her and it's frustrating.

Ian,

 

sounds great. I wish I had as much perspective as you after only 2 weeks since the breakup. The steps you've laid out make sense, except for #4 about getting your movies. You may have to forfeit those, my friend. The pain of seeing her just to reclaim "Boogie Nights" may be too much. Either wait a few months, or let those precious DVDs go.

 

Congrats on laying out an excellent, comprehensive plan!

Well, I think I can handle a few minutes, to be perfectly honest. One way or the other I'm going to have to see her. We do go to the same church after all. If it does set me back, it'll only be temporarily. I've got faith in my ability to move on. It's not going to debilitate me to pop in to snag my movies. It won't ruin my day (at least, I'm confident it won't in another week or so.) Plus, I left all 3 seasons of Arrested Development over there. I don't mind losing the Thin Red Line, but Arrested Development is, like, my other religion.

Ian,

I don't want to push you to recover faster than you should be. I think you need to give yourself some time.
