abbadabba's Journal, 23 Jul 10

Daughter had a great time at orientation, so she is happy to go off to college! Unfortunately she has to pack and spend the next 6 weeks working and waiting! We will get her out though, and I know she will be ready to go when she gets there.

Ex is now dating. I think he had this girl in mind when he left but really, good luck to her! Still, I am weirded out. How could he? We aren't technically divorced til October. Sheesh.

So, I guess I am free to look for someone too - filled out my profile on the dating site, now let's see what happens. I did get one contact from a guy with lots of tatoos - not sure I am ready for that!

Watched what I ate today even though I did have a poptart. I think I should keep losing weight to get back "on the market" - gotta get that scale!

Hope you are having a good week - I am done working for the week and it's my weekend - yeah!

That's good for your daughter. I think the whole orientation before you go is a nice idea. Oh boy. That has to be rough--the ex situation. Keep that market idea in your head. I know we're supposed to be doing this for ourselves, but a little external motivation never hurts.

Ashley and I did lots of running around yesterday for things to bring to school. Last year she was in residence but this year she is in a brand new town house with 3 other friends and needs bigger stuff. Yuk It's hard at first but you will get there Abba. Good luck on the dating site. When I looked through that match.com they all looked way too old and not very appealing to the eye. lol

Do the dating thing when YOU are ready, don't let your ex's dating life rush you. I don't know anything about the dating sites not sure how they work. Do what makes YOU happy!

LOL about the tatoos. I don't know about the Ex but, from your words, I think that I can understand just how you feel. Things will work out abba and good things are coming your way. Have a great Saturday and hang in there buddy.

Hey there ... I have tattoos!!! LOL!!! Sometimes it is just fun to meet people and not think about them being potential partners. Mixing it up can be interesting ... as long as you meet in a safe place. I agree. Don't let the ex activities push you ... make sure you are ready. Be good to you. You are worth it!!!

{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{hugs}}}}}}}}}}}}}}} Yes it is weird when the "ex" who isn't begins dating. Been there! I am sorry you are feeling this way but I hope you find some coping mechanisms. I used to have a date with ME one day a week. It was actually really good because I catered to myself in a way no one else could or would! My "dream" dates were something I did for me and included sending myself flowers, doing my hair and such and then going out and doing something I loved that "he" never did with me or merely tolerated (and bitched about!).
