She got upset yesterday over nothing. I asked her if she was still in love with me and her reply was, "Why are you doing this? I need a life," which of course is a non-sequitur answer. I'm not stopping her from doing anything and have actively encouraged her to see this new guy. We talked it...

Congratulations on everything!

Great song!

I am an over texter, and so I dialed it back to initiating one conversation a day (excepted for something I really really want to tell them). I feel comfortable with that. I've not had anyone complain that I text too much and generally speaking I get thank yous for thinking of them later even if...

Theoretically. Her sex drive took a nose dive in the last 18 months. If it is age and physical related, she could probably be sexually monogamous. If it is emotional related, there's no chance long term. She's going to be happy and turned on again, and he won't be able to satisfy her...

And we're done. 4 years of the most intense, loving, supporting relationship. My friends are incredulous.

We talked mostly about work. I really have to just let it play out and not worry. We didn't spend much time on Susan. She seemed as incredulous as I that Susan would make such a rash decision without knowing NewGuy better. And there's the rub. I have no idea if she's made the decision. I'm...

We are both excited about the upcoming trip, but neither of us wants to discuss what happens after. I'm kind of a mess and am seeing a therapist today. I have seen her a few times previously, but for my marriage (which she said was in zero danger) not for me. Now, I'm not sleeping well (better...

You are not alone.

I'm completely opposed to letting go of anyone I like being around. I am totally in favor of explaining my needs and wants and how I feel. Sometimes the second sentence changes whether I like being around someone. :)

Susan is confusing the hell out of me. So affectionate Friday and Saturday, ignored me (relative to our normal stuff, but didn't respond to several pictures or a long email), for nearly 4 days, and then was happy and fun on the phone last night, and then back to ignoring. She hasn't messaged me...

Stakes made me feel better. She helped me see that I'm not "Consolation Prize" but instead I am "Old Reliable." No matter what she needs I am there for her and she can trust me. If there are downsides to that, it's my fault for not asking for more time. If there comes a time where she's not...

Happy birthday, Bluebird!

Thanks for reading and commenting, Evie and Atlantis. Things have taken a turn. I need to let it play out, but Susan has a new online boyfriend. She is gripped tightly in the throes of NRE to the point where she is considering things that are completely against her nature. She is planning on...

Hello, everyone. I know it's been a long time, but I thought I would check in. Everything is going pretty well. I've made several more trips out to LA. We have a vacation scheduled in early October. I'll be visiting either in late August or joining her for a wedding in September. However...

I had so much fun last week. Susan flew into Houston and we road tripped to New Orleans. We got an absolutely wonderful combination of talking, events, and sexy time. On the car trip we got to combine two of our favorite activities. I love podcasts, she likes real crime stories. We listened to...

I have ironically nicknamed her Farmgirl. We did have to wait until last night, but we went out again. It was ok. I like her as a friend, but I don't see anything coming of it other than sex. I'm not sure if I'm ok with that or not. I feel like I want it to organically go away. We had an...

Thank you. We are supposed to go out tonight, but as you notice the posting time (work) and my allergies have gone completely berserk, I don't know if that's going to happen. I'm freaking out a bit though. One of the worst experiences I've had in a relationship was when I took advantage of a...

Oh.. So that's how a good date is supposed to go. Met a lady off OKC last night. Chemistry. Laughter. Attraction. We didn't want the date to end. I like this. I'm going to need a new nickname.

Had a lunch date on Wednesday that went well enough that I invited her to watch football with me on Saturday (her favorite team.. she would have been watching anyway). She asked if I'd do it at her house, so must be mutual. I'm not super excited though, and it makes me wonder if it's worth the...
