Positive Steps Forward...

I thought that I would post some baby steps/attempts that I have made in order to regain my life back...

Since the First week of June that my engagement/relationship ended with this guy.....

-Started to get in touch with friends I let fall by the wayside with this past relationship.

-Closed my MySpace and YouTube account, got rid of most reminders of him, changed my email address, and didn't reply to his 2 texts after this whole relationship blew up.

-Started counseling a few weeks ago.

-Applied/applying for jobs.

-Journaled/journaling about this experience, what it's taught me, red flags, how I feel, what I want in a future relationship, etc. etc.

-Planned an "exercise date" with a good girl friend.

-Bought new shoes. ; )

-Went tanning.

-Had FUN and DANCED and LAUGHED/LET LOOSE at a wedding with all of the groomsmen ;P

-Made a poster with 2 columns and put it in my room: Fantasy vs. Reality - to remind me WHY I stay strong, and WHY I don't go back or reconnect.

-Cleaned out the library's wealth of books regarding narcissists and sociopaths.

-Attended a Bible study with my little sisters.
