I had my first date tonight

I know there will be skepticism - I had my own - and have been turning this person down for quite a while.
However - 2 great things about the date:
1) He's not a rebound - we had a great time laughing and discussing a plethora of topics (he's selling his home in London, Im an accountant) you know...light focus / business / not heavy relationship stuff or ANY relationship stuff, except the fact that I told him

Alright....I was just heading to bed - have the day off tomorrow - So I thought I'd change my avatar to something Halloweeny- I noticed the STATS - page - so I saw my # of views - for certain posts I've posted

Thank you - I DEFINITELY will go slow - My focus is still on ME! :)
Even if we dont have another date - it felt soooo good to take the risk.
I was actually really nervous - and had accepted and backed out a couple of times - then just WENT FOR IT.

Michelle
Thanks Mom!!!!
I actually felt soooo NORMAL again. I got home - and the girls were sitting in the living room - I said..."I just had a date." and they
Micelle,
An overdue belated welcome to EAS from moi to you!
I love to read posts about Enders making positive steps
Whether you think you can or you think you can't you are probably right. A parrot can repeat what it has learned but the mark of true intelligence is applying what is learned.
Thank
Hey M,
I had a couple of dates this summer - I was so guarded and I knew I wasn't really looking to date, but interested in connecting with someone. They were simple and sweet. Both involved just taking a walk, sharing some little details about our backgrounds and a little food. They were lovely and simple. They reminded me that one day, when I was ready, that I would find a deep and meaningful relationship with another human being again. I would be okay. I would one day trust again, share, laugh and love. I would be Loved. I never saw either person again. I realized that I was no where near over my feelings for my H and until the last glimmer of hope disappears, until a divorce is finalized and I have grieved that relationship for some time, I am not interested in being distracted from myself or my real life at this time. And maybe not for a very long time. I have come to embrace this time to myself as a gift. A gift of having the space to heal at my own pace within my own safe space. While I may be lonely at times, I feel a sense of calm at no longer wondering if I look pretty enough, sound smart enough, or am kind enough to ensure *he* wants to see me again. I am NOT ready for any of that yet. I take comfort in your first date experience. I know how great it feels to remember how *normal* normal feels.
Good luck to you and your daughter and baby to be ...
TU.
Good for you M!
