Time heals...

I do believe that at 3.5 months of separation I inadvertantly watched a "cute" romantic comedy where the guy screws up, realizes it in the nick of time, and redeems himself to the delight of all.

I wrote myself an email that night that I've looked back on several times. I swore no more romantic comedies for awhile. I made a list of all the things he'd need to fix before I'd even consider taking him back. I make promises to take care of ME first.

I have reread it several times, especially at low points. Healing and recovering is a process. I was with him for nearly half my life, and now that we've been separated for over a year, I am slowly moving on. (We go to mediation next week, and hopefully can work out something to get this divorce over with.)

Be gentle. Three months seems like forever, but is only the start. Take care of you.

Hugs,
D
