Double dating...at 59?

What you are calling cheating, a high schooler might call double dating, or dating two women at the same time. He *told* you he wanted a girlfriend, not a shared life. And you gave him permission. By agreeing to see him, by accepting his invitations, you gave your permission for him to remain uncommitted and free to see others. You might have changed your mind since he told you, but he hasn't been acting as if you had changed your permission.

Wow - Ouch!! Well, if that doesn't describe what my past 3 years have been with AC! Thanks Brad.

Why is this so hard for me to come up with in the first place? Why don't i see it, accept it and STOP IT??? before wasting so many years on something that's never going to change??

No Drama - No Blog

It's weird but in my case where there's serenity, peace, joy, and an absence of drama, chaos and confusion - there's no blogging.

My latest growth spurt has been around releasing relationships that don't contribute to my life. This is true in personal ones as well as employment-related. If it doesn't bring something into my life - i'm re-evaluating it's value.

This is no small feat and comes with a lot of hard work, effort and determination - but the rewards are worth it.

So - 2010 is going to be a year of loss - loss of old relationships that no longer fit and hopefully loss of job which has resulted in a couple of years of loss of self-esteem and respect.

What are YOUR 2010 New Year's resolutions?

Blessings!
