Title: Glimmer of Hope Post by: ReclaimingMyLife on May 08, 2015, 01:26:48 PM I have some great news. Small news but very significant. It is a reminder that what I am doing (NC/No Stalking) is working. I am recovering! I share this as a sign of hope for all of us slogging thru NC.
Last Sunday, I went on my first date (lunch) since the b/u in Nov. Yesterday, my sister asked me if I had heard from my "friend." I assumed she was speaking of my lunch date and launched into a long-winded answer about him. But guess what? This is the best part: she was not speaking of my lunch date. She was asking about my UxBPDbf who did NOT even cross my mind. He, who has been on my mind non-stop since meeting him, did NOT even blip into my consciousness at that moment. Hallelujah! There is hope. We're fighting the good fight. Title: Re: Glimmer of Hope Post by: Achaya on May 08, 2015, 01:31:56 PM Yay for NC! I finally was able to put it in place a few days ago. I feel so relieved now, not to have to worry about the next contact, both longing for it and wondering how hurt I will be by my ex's detachment from me. I am kind of depressed now, but I do feel like I've started the uphill climb now. NC is a very helpful tool!

Title: Re: Glimmer of Hope Post by: leftconfused on May 08, 2015, 05:02:54 PM Awesome Reclaiming! I'm so happy for you and it definitely gives us all hope that we will all get there. Good stuff! :)
