Title: Progress... Post by: Lion Fire on August 09, 2014, 12:44:23 PM I've come a long way in the last 4 months.
Today a mutual friend of myself and my exgf skyped me. He told me he had spoken to my ex and she asked him to ask me to contact her. I stopped him immediately, told him that I wanted absolutely nothing to do with her and that her name should not be brought up in our conversations. I calmly explained that I had to protect myself at all costs from her and that I did not want her to be involved in our friendship. He was cool about it. I felt empowered by talking straight and setting up a solid boundary. I did feel discomfort tbh. She is still a dark cloud in my life but I did not allow this to ruin my day. Title: Re: Progress...

Title: Re: Progress... Post by: patientandclear on August 09, 2014, 01:43:32 PM That's so good to hear LF. I am also trying to be very disciplined in not exposing myself to temptation. I know where I need to go and I just need to go there. Further reconsideration will only set me back. I don't think there is any doubt you are making the right choice here.
