he was wrapped in a tarp on top of your car?

was he dead or alive?

what were you going to do with him once you got away?

lol!! OK that was really funny! Thanks for the laugh :) He was alive, I was just hiding him.

I guess we were gonna be together.

well, I come from the school of thought that every part of your dream is you, afterall, it came from your subconscious, right?

So the dream I had a few days ago about my exS in the delivery room during the birth of his first child, had me missing him and thinking about him for a couple days after

but really, for me, he represents the selfish part of me, the part that wants immediate gratification, doesn't think about anyone else, isn't impeded by pother people's impressions or thoughts, the hedonist, the adventure-seeker

and the newborn is me too, the pure part of me, the trusting part, the part that is vulnerable and bonds with someone who is affectionate

and really, I think my dream at least has nothing whatsoever to do with my exS and has everything to do with the crossing of the threshold from being in-recovery-its-all-about-me to the woman who is about to embark on dating, and learning how to trust someone all over again, the one who is feeling vulnerable

and that is exactly where I am in my life



so maybe where you're at right now, you're taking your self-centred part of you, and in a sneaky way, bringing it along with you because now's the time, but you may be feeling like you aren't willing to show that to the world just yet, because the world might judge you for it

to which I say

get on wich yo bad self!

;)

Very interesting! I have been trying on a more self-centered outlook lately. That isn't easy for me, I'm too much of a people pleaser. You may have a really good point! Thanks for your insight JoyRide!! Much appreciated :)

I agree with joyride:)

My friends, some, have been on line dating for years, no result. They make fun of it now, but guess what? They still trying.

How about you? Have you tried it?? I heard that only 2% if all people are successful but then again, at my school ( I teach) At least 3 of the teachers met their husbands on Match.com or eharmony. It's something to do anyway.

I haven't yet, because after my break up, my friends found a guy for me, I was almost crying to him about ex. What I know, people are trying different sites.

my intrepretation is far less sophisticated than Joyrides's.....however....

I think while you are missing him; you know it is wrong for you--that is why he was wrapped in a tarp on top your car! A part of you accepts that part of your life is now finished and dead. The other part is wrestling that you are missing companionship. However, bottom line both parts of you agree that the EX is not right for you because he was wrapped in a tarp on top your car!

Maybe he was wrapped in a tarp because your family didn't support your marriage to begin with and you know it would have worked had you two been just left alone from outsiders beliefs of how the relationship was.
Maybe you should send him a package with a tarp inside and ask if he like to join you for a camping expedition.. and work things out if hes still single of course...
