It's another 7 days away, your giving yourself an opportunity to feel better and therefore think clearer when you do decide to write it. Best of luck mate and post here. It really does help.
Yes I have definitely found this to be true! With social media (i.e. Facebook) it makes it so much harder when there is no contact because I always want to look and see what she's doing. But that only makes the roller coaster worse! I've definitely been experiencing the roller coaster effect, however I've been trying to tell myself it's for the better. As an alcoholic, she never knew the real me...she wasn't marrying the real me. Better that it happened now rather than 5 years down the road when we had a house and kids. I'm trying to get rid of my "stinking thinking"
SR is helping tremendously already!
