Told DH (he's had an affair) on Sunday that I needed a break as he's coming and going as he pleases, isn't trying to actively reconcile and is just an arse. I was really positive, I booked a holiday yesterday, I'm being made a permanent staff member and I've got a good pay rise. I'm also receiving attention from an eligible bachelor (friendly texts) though I'm not ready for any sort of relationship, but this evening I'm a bit down.
DH going to a concert on Friday with a mate (was meant for her) and he's texting asking if his tickets have come. It's a trigger. I want to get off out for a long walk to take my mind off things but my DD is far too clingy at mo so I'm at home.
I don't want to count down the hours till bed. I'm just feeling a bit despondent. A text from the bachelor would cheer me up but thats not fair cos I'm nowhere near ready for that though he fully knows and understands my position. I also feel guilty cos of DH but it is just nice friendly attention.
So a bit down, just need to ride it out I suppose. I don't want to see DH but at the same time I'm so used to seeing him. He's arranging things with the children and I feel left out of his life. It's so confusing. I'm hoping he's sitting in his 'room' stewing over not seeing me but I doubt it
