Laundry done, house cleaned,socks matched, dogs fed. Kept myself really busy today. Feeling numb but starting to think maybe I can do this on my own. Even though I don't want to. And then the night comes and i feel so alone I hate evenings and night time it' gets so quiet and dark and I can't stop looking at the damn clock thinking he will be home soon and I look for his car knowing that It won't come.
Keeping busy is good. The other week I came home and thought I'd just pick up the house a little bit. The night ended when I finished using the steamer on the refrigerator. Realizing that that was the best thing I could think of doing on a Wednesday evening sent me into a rage spiral (you're not there yet).

Dragonflywishes, I'm so sorry about the stbx. Mine barely waited for the ink to dry on the divorce papers before moving in with the new boyfriend.
I guess it comes down to character, would you rather be the person that could give up and move on so easily or would you rather be the person that a relationship meant something to them? (In the moment it may be easy to say give up and move on) I think if you really think about it you'll come to the conclusion that by having feelings about this you're the better type of person.
Both of you stay strong!
