Hey, in case anyone is still watching this, I thought I’d post a tiny update.

I had been having increasingly vivid dreams about my ex the past week and they were driving me crazy; I was getting fed up, I thought I’d be “better” by now. But then, I think life intervened. It kind of blindsided me, but there is suddenly another guy in the picture. He’s cute and kind and I never thought someone like him would give me a second thought. We both know it’s probably not going to go anywhere – in many ways I’m not ready – but it gives me some food for thought. It’s no magic cure or a replacement (and I don’t want it to be), but rather something different that I’m letting myself get excited about. And I now am even more sure that life and time will do its thing; there are surprises for you when you least expect it. Give up a little bit more of your heartache every day and start moving forward again.
