Day 6 NC - I am really surprised about the fact that I haven't been missing him. It's so weird. I used to think about him constantly, obsess and obsess...miss him terribly, etc. But lately I am feeling, well, frankly, free. Is it possibly because it's so early in the NC process? Is this a normal stage and the worse is yet to come or ?

I went out with friends last night and had a really great time. Doing stuff like that takes my mind off my problems.

I suppose though too it helps to forget about AP when I have a lot on my plate -- work is busy, the kids keep me busy and my STBX H is such a flippin' jackass that I have enough drama to keep my brain occupied.

I'd say it's normal...and wonderful.

I agree with Victory. Also consider yourself one of the lucky ones, just don't get too over confident yet. There will still be some highs and lows, but most of it will be brought on re. our own junk. ;-)


I remember not feeling much of anything either after several weeks; more like relief and satisfaction that I had finally kicked the dying carcass of my affair to the curb.


Sometimes we are more ready than we think to end this emotional carnival ride.
