A Better day

OK, yesterday was a complete write off due to my mood/rejection, I got up this morning after a night of disturbed sleep, thinking OK it's another day of boredom and loneliness, but instead of dwelling on the fact I was determined to try and make the best of a bad situation. I messaged my ex about arrangements to do with financial things, and msged with her quite civilly. I know a lot of people recommend to avoid contact with the ex. I have tried this approach before even to the point of anger etc. However at the moment I don't wish to be nasty, in fact it doesn't help at all to be like that and I don't think she does either, we both know the need for me to move on in this.I also managed to do some domestic things, changing my beding, and washing, and also go out for an hour walk, my routines really help ground me, but I still need some friends.I have started a new group on DS for people who basically are left with sweet-fanny-adam after divorce, if you think you fit the category or you just want to help others, please visit the group here.I'm also fairly happy because I have an Interview for a job on the 28th July as a Support Worker.Today was a bit mad, because I have a ton of applications, and job things going on all at once, but I feel more positive about myself. Thanks to all on DS for offering you're recent support - Stars all of you

Yeah there were days after my wife dropped the bomb on me where I couldn\'t get anything done. Still now there are days I don\'t want to work out but I push myself to do it because I know I have to if I want to be successful at the academy. Sometimes I have a hard time being civil with my STBX, but I have plenty of time to learn I suppose considering we will be sharing children for a while. She accuses me of being nasty all the time, while I think she should consider herself lucky I\'m not screaming at her what a whore she is.
