Anita,

Hope you had a safe and happy new year’s eve.  I ended up going to bed very early because I couldn’t fall asleep the night before.  I feel pretty well rested and work has been very slow today, only an hour and a half to go.

So far I feel like I’m doing well overall without any mishaps really.  I feel a lot of this is due to not having a man in my life at all because it only brings me anxiety.  I may  have mentioned this but a guy I went to college with and casually dated for a month in college started messaging me about the same time I started talking and spending time with K.  He’s always liked my pictures on social media but actually reached out and messaged me about 6 months ago.  He’s divorced and lives in Mississippi and has 2 boys, 8 and 4.  He has been divorced for about 5 years so has helped me a bit through my beginning stages of the divorce process.  He’s made is obvious he likes me and has asked to see me either by paying to fly me to Mississippi or meeting close to me.  I’ve said no twice.  He has always said and done the right things so far and paid for most of my dog’s wheelchair on my fundraising sight.

The thing is and this has been said is that we live far apart and neither of us could ever move because of our jobs and our kids.  I’m thinking of maybe saying yes to a visit.  Not yet-maybe in the spring or summer.  What do you think?  Also, he had a girlfriend in college I found out which is why we quit seeing each other.  I asked if he cheated on his wife while they were married and he said yes twice, he was caught once.
