RogueAC Posted September 29, 2008 Posted September 29, 2008 Many of us here on the coping forum like to post our NC count and write things to our ex... I think we should also start posting what we will do TODAY that is good for us, even if it is just one thing. I’ll start: attend a yoga class and work out tonight
ioncebelieved Posted September 29, 2008 Posted September 29, 2008 Keep NC first and foremost. Stop thinking of ex less than usual. Take another Vicodin for my neck pain...not really good for me, but helps with neck pain. Think positive because it does help and is good to stay in the right frame of mind. Good thread!
lofi_tokyo Posted September 30, 2008 Posted September 30, 2008 I'm finally committing myself to my homework again! I am an honors student who has never settled for anything less than A's, my ex broke up with me the day before school started and since then I've been on the path towards solid C's. Unacceptable. So yeah- as of yesterday I started trying again. Its not easy, I think I honestly just got used to procrastination. But... I'm getting good! Yesterday wasn't 100% study mode, and today hasnt been perfect... but I'm getting back on track. I will not let this breakup ruin my plans of getting into Standford Business school!

Still married, coping with unofficial separation. 1. I didn't go to a Rosh Hashannah family dinner with my husband. If he wants to be separated from me, he doesn't get to play house with me at social gatherings. I let him feel like a fifth wheel around four other couples, who are all his family. He took the kids with him though, but he is sat at that table unacompanied by a spouse. (And I don't give a rat's butt about religious holidays nor am I religious myself). 2. I told him a week ago that if he wants to go dancing by himself, he doesn't get to come home and sleep with his wife in the same bed. Dance with other women but sleep with me? No way! He seems very upset about not being able to have his cake and eat it, too. Tonight I will sleep with the kids again. He says he asked me to sleep with him because the kids aren't comfortable with me in the same bed. I'll consider sleeping on the sofa, but not with him. If he's done with me, we're done for good.
audrey_1 Posted September 30, 2008 Posted September 30, 2008 Played tennis incredibly hard for an hour. Came home, showered, and took a hyrdrocodone to ease the pain in my back from 5 stitches resulting from a pre-cancerous spot removed on my skin.
livinlovin Posted September 30, 2008 Posted September 30, 2008 Rogue, I think this is a great idea. When I went through my d, being positive and having gratitude is the ONLY thing that eventually got me through.
RecordProducer Posted September 30, 2008 Posted September 30, 2008 being positive and having gratitudeWrong! I am positive that my grrrr-attitude doesn't bring me much relief.
Intergalactic Posted September 30, 2008 Posted September 30, 2008 well, today is over for me, but i flirted with a really nice guy and refused to allow the "guilty thoughts" to settle in my brain. i decided to "just go for it" with a job i'd been a little worried about, and ended up really liking it. i went for a run in the evening and am now currently sitting in front of the tv and my computer, munching on some chips and NOT allowing myself to feel bad for it!
lofi_tokyo Posted September 30, 2008 Posted September 30, 2008 I have a date in... 3hours!!! Yayyyy! Even if its just a date, just having lunch together, its something fun! Yayayay!
EmperorR Posted September 30, 2008 Posted September 30, 2008 I bought a book time to start reading again
Author RogueAC Posted September 30, 2008 Author Posted September 30, 2008 Got an awesome haircut/style this morning. Tonight I will rearrange my new furniture and clean, really clean the house.
lofi_tokyo Posted October 1, 2008 Posted October 1, 2008 Tomorrow I.... get to hang out with happy friends! Will possibly talk to a cute guy in one of my classes! Soon I will go to sleep and LOVE it because I have an icky cold and my head wants zzzz
Beee Posted October 1, 2008 Posted October 1, 2008 I went to my 1st yoga class..... It was something we were going to do together, and that's what's stopped me so far. But I thought, why should I miss out beacause he's an immature baby? I really enjoyed it!
