Ironically, my first GOOD day after...
Mon, 07-19-2004 - 10:53pm
How ironic is it that my first GOOD day was today, one month to the very day of the breakup? Today I was able to concentrate on work, not think about her all the time, the knot in my stomach was much smaller and less frequent, and I went out and did some volunteer stuff tonight along with seeing a movie (a love story chick flick..Cinderella Story) with my kids!!!!

Last night, when the ex G/F told me she was "in love" with the guy she met 24 hours after our breakup and that he loved her...hmmmmmmm....things in my head just clicked! I know weak moments are still ahead...and there are gonna be lonely "pangs"...but I think, perhaps and hopefully, I'm seeing light out there...there was something just SO FINAL in hearing the things she said....

THere's still A LOT of healing to be done yet...I invested my 99.9% of my whole heart in this thing...if I'd gone 100% I'd have married her...and boy was I close to it...but now, I'm starting to realize a bunch of things...and maybe, just maybe I'm turning the first of many corners to come! I hope so. Thanks for your encouragement here!
