I'll bite, how are things?
I'm alive. Getting by, confused but alive! cooking, eating, cleaning, working, living. Have my extreme ups and downs but I guess that's normal. These things take time!
I'll bite, how are things?
As above, OP has "Only I know her properly" head on.
I've been there, done that. Rest of my family told me I was best off out, in my heart I knew but I clung on with the belief that "we had something special that nobody else can understand" but you know what, it was all rubbish and my word, wasn't I better off when I realised it.
I played the field for a couple of years, found a cracking lady 6 years ago (online dating ftw) and now I'm living with her.
David will read this lot back in a month or 12 and realise (I hope!)
Yup. Definitely. I was such a douche. One year later and I have a beautiful awesome lady I can see myself spending a long time with, in a different more mature way to the previous relationship. The 9 or so months single did me a lot of good.
I'm still a train driver, (of course) with a flat, a heap load more independence...plus the lady of course.
I can see why I believed things and that it was all for the good. She did me a favour really. I was obviously too much of a pussy to get out even though she treated me awful at points, especially the end situation. Hindsight is a wonderful thing.
So did you ever have any contact post note? Well done for moving on!!

I really like it when people come back and tell us how things are going. It's a great inspiration for people that post in these and other threads, who go through terrible times, and shows that there is light at the end of the tunnel.
Often things are better than they were before, and you deserve a big congratulations for working it out and getting yourself a better life.



I'd kick the guys ass
Now we need an update from the other bloke with the psycho ex who has been camping outside his door screaming the street down, oh and posting pics on here after she stalked him onto our very own forum. LOL

Good work David! Thanks for coming back to update the thread.
They say good judgment is the result of experience and experience is the result of bad judgment.
We gotta make these sort of mistakes to learn!
