...in my 6 months No Dating time. I know it's early in but I had a tough time last night. But I know that was in part due to the fact that I had just told someone that I wouldn't be in contact with them for a month...while I decided what I wanted in terms of friendship. It's hard when circumstances and events lead you to the point with someone where you aren't even sure you want that anymore. Especially for me as I am one who doesn't totally expose themselves to just anyone...I have a small handful of people that I have done that with and he's one of them. So to think about not having that friendship....well, it's a big deal. However, I really need to consider a lot of things....and make sure I don't put myself into a position where I get hurt like I have.
I had a dream last night, or rather this morning while I slept in, that involved my current situation as well as a girlfriend of mine...her story, in my dream, made my situation look like nothing!! We were with another friend of mine and her man...driving somewhere and he was testing me in my "No dating for 6 months" thing...kept showing me pictures of his friends - HOT friends! haha - and telling me that he could set up a date with any one of them for me if I was interested and I WAS STICKING TO MY GUNS! :) I always like it when my dreams back up my awake decisions! haha It was certainly interesting!
Today I am going to start reading "Boundaries"...I've started it before but haven't really gotten much past the first chapter for whatever reason...usually because I get busy and haven't had time for a lot of reading. But this time it's different...and I intend to finish it this week. I'll post my observations and thoughts as I go...I have a feeling there are going to be a few "AHA!" moments in the next few days!

6 months is a long time.. good for you and I hope that this will be a time of healing and self discovery, and not just the kind that makes me want to buy stocks in Energizer :)
ReplyDeleteHAHAHAHAHA!! Thanks girl! :)
ReplyDeleteBoundaries. Life changing book for me. Had to buy the DVD and listen to the audio on my iPhone while driving. Got even more out of it second time around. Basic principles that most of us suck at.
ReplyDeleteI've heard from a lot of people that it's been a life-changing book. I am pretty excited about it. I know it's going to influence numerous relationships I have...in a good way.
