It has now been 2 months and 7 days since the break up. I sound pretty obsessive, breaking it down to days now. It's not so much that the days since the break up itself are important. What is important is that I have made it past that 2 month period, the time from the break up my last marriage when I started seeking out a relationship to fill the void left by his leaving as well as my son going off to college.
When I got involved in this last relationship, I knew deep down inside that it was too early; that I shouldn't be doing this. But I went ahead, listening to him, believing him over my own gut feeling.
This time, I know better. I haven't even been interested in looking. I know I am better off working on myself rather than trying to make myself feel better by filling myself up with the attention of someone else. And so, each day that I get past the 2 month mark is a victory for me.
