I'm doing allot better. Been figuring things out and coming to terms with the sudden change of direction that my life has taken. The sense of loss is still there, but not as bad as it was at first. I've lost 20 pounds and feel better physically then I have in years. My diet is better and I'm sleeping good at night. Everything that's left in the house is mine, and I've been organizing it the way I want it. I've also started on some small remodeling projects that I wanted all along, but compromised on for her. I've been making plans for the future again, and for me, that's what I'm all about.
Steph and I have spoken a few times and I've had some counseling. I know more today about relationships than I did before. I don't hate her, or even dislike her. I'm sure I'll always love her and her kids, but I don't see how I can ever trust her again. We might remain friends, and if that happens, I'll be ok with that.
Thanks for asking, and thank you to everyone who's taken the time to write me. Your support has been very much appreciated. Just knowing that you are out there and that you care enough to share your stories with me, offer advice and encouragement means the world to me.
Again, Thank You.
Eddie
