shockandawed Posted February 20, 2007 Posted February 20, 2007 Hey everyone, Just wanted to thank everyone again for all the great support over the last few months. And wanted to share a little uplifting stuff for once. I have a 1st date tonight. Yes, I have had a few in the last month or two, but I always felt nagged by thoughts of the ex. Simply wasn't ready. Something strangely different this go around. I met her online about two weeks ago. A few emails and IMs but far apart and nothing really in depth. This weekend, they seemed to get longer, Sunday was over 4 hours. We share alot of similarities, but most importantly, we share common beliefs on kids, communication and family-friends. Everyone says those things, but we both were able to describe examples and such. Not to mention she is attractive and has a great sense of humor. Anyhow, for the first time, I actually have butterflies about tonight. The ex is out of mind for the most part. When I do think of her, it is almost as a WTF was wrong with me? I don't want to expect too much in case it doesn't go anywhere, but I think I may have finally broken through. I know all too well that all the great IMs and phone calls don't necessarily equal in-person chemistry. Even if it doesn't work out, I do finally realize there are better opportunities for me than what I had with the ex. Wish me luck and HALLELUAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Shock is in the house!!
RocketMan2 Posted February 20, 2007 Posted February 20, 2007 Nice one shocked! Has she got a younger single English cousin/sister by any chance? I Look forward to the debriefing! How've you been by the way? Rocket
Author shockandawed Posted February 20, 2007 Author Posted February 20, 2007 Thanks Most! Doing well Rocket! I have had absolutely N/C at all in about two weeks and honestly, this has been the best two weeks since it all began. I am really starting to feel like myself again. Sleeping pretty well, eating, back to being a smart arse, laughing again, etc.. The best part is when I think of the ex, it is pretty indifferent for the most part. The occasional ticked off feeling, but the gut wrenching appears to be long gone. I still have some anger at myself for putting up with her crap so long before and after the breakup. Oh well, there are life lessons there. I think it will make me a better person the next go around. Which I kind of hope starts tonight, LOL!!! You still staying strong?
