Hey, I'm happy to report I'm down 6.1 pounds and already feeling better! I LIKE my side of the bargain. HAHA!
As for the "weird little pseudo-infidelity things" I got a ton more stories from the XGF in the last couple days. You cannot believe the webs has has been weaving for 20 years. Half truths, spins, disappearing acts, inability to work. Oh man. Well, reality has smacked me in the face, but the good news is this. As a team, she and I are going to work hard on getting an interventionist. Wouldn't you know she has volunteered in the field and had two children go through substance rehab. She has been trying to heal the past few years, but now wants to finally help my ABF (or XABF) some help.
Yes, it is WONDERFUL having distance. So when he called today, on the road with friends on the way to a festival (where they'll all drink heavily), I couldn't possibly find them a room to stay in overnight. With any luck, they'll get stopped for DWI immediately.
