Cant believe I missed this one till now Patty!

Its so amazing to see how the light bulb goes on after the fact isnt it!
I also think you may have hit the nail on the head about the moods, manic and depressed vs drinking and hangovers. I am so familiart with that, but had not, until you said it, thought of it like that.
You are so fabulous!

Give yourself a pat on the back, you are a star!

I'd like to get in on the cheesecake...heard on the news just now that for all the sacrificing and exercising, a group of women aged 50-79, involved in a multi-million dollar study...we're going to die anyway...just like the skinny healthy folks who have given up pizza, CHEESECAKE, and chocolate. Rate of death from cancer and heart disease was the same for both groups.

Can I have fruit on the top of my cheesecake please?

just remember you dont really have control over him popping into your work,but you DO have control over yourself and your actions and reactions. if we truly know in our hearts,the relationship is not gonna work,we just got to stay strong and back away.
when i first broke up with my ex,i kind of liked him still talking to me on the computer,or calling--- partly because he usually always said something to validate i made the right decision!!! i think for a long time,when the contact stopped,maybe it was that little bit of doubting myself that made things worse.
as much as it hurts,i kind of hope mine never contacts me again for i just dont have 100% faith that i wouldnt get sucked back in,especially if i was in a vulnerable state.....ie,bored,lonely,etc......

Patty,

I think that is wonderful that you had the sense to recognize what you probably knew deep down inside! That's the kind of stuff that used to happen to me too when I was single and dating! I'd miss someone so much, have imaginary conversations, visualize in my mind what it would be like if we ever saw each other again and then BANG .... the opportunity presented itself and it was nothing like I imagined it would be. I am grateful that I recognized what was real and what wasn't!

Proud of you friend, you done good and I have a feeling the light at the end of tunnel is much closer than you imagine it to be!

Virtual??? Dag nabbit rabbit...I just knew UPS was going to be knocking on the door by Friday with a cheesecake. So I shall just imagine that I'm gorging myself with a pineapple cheesecake. No, make that cherry. But I like blueberry better than cherry. Decisions, decisions, decisions.
