I do not have time of birth yet, just date. Since you are here Dazed, I think giving him peace and support is the wisest course. Do you not agree?

β€” Bless you. That is just what I was thinking Tam. One of the worst things for me after was the silence when everyone withdrew thinking I need "space". Not so. My intention is certainly not to irritate, just to bolster. He sent one back saying he wasn't doing well. I sent one back saying to call me if he has need unless solitude better suits presently. That I was here for him.

LOL Stop picking out a ring and a dress for me woman! *shaking fist in mock anger*

You are a sweetheart vb. β€”

Sorry to hear he wasn't doing well. Emotion comes in waves -kinda like a rollercoaster. It becomes worse if those we feel closest to leave when their emotional support is needed most. The quiet times seem to be the most deafening. Being there starts with our true, heartfelt intention to be supportive. We can be there in so many small but significant ways, even if we are not in the room or town. Showing up (metaphorically speaking) with a loving and open heart (and in your case with some homemade food) is by far the best support.

Him: Good morning. I need to you that I'm having a really tough time with things I feel like I need some white time to get my head cleared up. Not sure what else I can do for myself but I just need some quiet time. I hope you understand.

Me: I understand and respect that. I want you to realize that if you need anything I am here. I do not give up on the people in my life, you matter to me --------. Now, I will continue on in my quest to honoring your request. Take care of yourself darling.


And so. That. Is that.

I understand completely what he is going through. I respect that, the best thing I can possibly do is to honor what he is telling me he needs. That would be so damned selfish of me ( and more than a little coo-coo for Coco Puffs ) to not realize he is in pain.
Patience I have by the bucket loads. I do not welch on people, I do not quit nor give up. No matter how this shakes out, how his feelings are about matters at the end of the day. Friend, more...I have his back.

Thank you Intrigued for sharing that, goodness. You just go on auto-pilot and exist in a fog for so long.

It was a relative. I'll not go into detail. Everyone grieves. It is just naturally in me to reach out and comfort. Try to soothe and be a sounding board. After my daughter passed everything was surreal. I know absolutely that right here, right now, family is all round. People that have stood there for him for years with history are there blowing up his phone. I am one voice in a sea of many right now. Life seems so far away, on the other side of a foggy fish bowl.
I also know that these people will recede, fade away. When you need them most. They think you need time, need space, need to be alone. I know absolutely that you do not. You need anchors, you need comfort. I intend to be one. Even if that means buggering off to allow him to process what he needs too. What I will NOT do, is disappear. I will give him his time. What he chooses to do on the other side of that is up to him.

Thank you for the well wishes. πŸ™‚

Nothing too much further to report actually. After 3 weeks of silence he said he was confused about things ( I honestly don't believe he texted to tell me this for his own benefit, more to placate a mutual friend who was more than PO'd at the behavior..lovely Pisces woman ). He said I was too intense, and I am. Make no apology for it. I had to be more than amused at the statement, made me want to pull his Scorp card.
Anyways, shortly beforehand he made some rapturous and most swoony and heartfelt message of tendresse..to ...yes. His ex. On facebook in fact. Whom he claimed he was over. Apparently not.

So, I sent this:

*******. I have done nothing to warrant any of these emotions, or anything else of the sort. I have not gone all psychotic bitch. I have not blown up your phone or exhibited any random stupidity. What I sent via a 'hiya' was simply reaching out. There is no "confusion" on your end. You plainly still have strong feelings for your ex. No confusion there. If you were thinking of something merely physical you could have plainly laid that on the table so that instead of dates, I could have simply said "No thank you, I'll be wanting more for myself."

Previous to this his texts to my person were couched as if he could lay the groundwork for plan B if his wild protests of le'amour were unheeded. I closed the window and the gap.

So, there you have it. Handful of dates, a bit of very nice snogging, then a puff of smoke..and some texting back and forth round midnight.

In all seriousity though. I just did what I do. Was purely myself, came at it with everything in me. Open mind, open heart..and when the b.s. got a bit thick..laid it all out in black and white. I am not sure what the man was used too. Obviously it wasn't me. I want to thank everyone for your kind words though. And I do think it's best to find out what I did ( you'd have to be a true turnip to have not.. ) in earliest stages rather than later, eh?
