I'm doing 43 things
Joined a few networking groups on Meetup today. Maybe this will be the beginning to me completing this goal.
It’s been difficult meeting up with my old co worker so we haven’t done anything yet. I just need something to keep me busy and other options from my usual circle. It’s a drag depending on one person’s ability or willingness to go out…If she can’t or doesn’t want to go out, then I don’t go out. I can’t continue this because I’m forcing myself to have the life she does. If her husband doesn’t want to go out, she doesn’t go, causing me not to go out. If she has plans with her husband and three kids, I don’t have anything to do. I understand that she has other commitments, but I don’t have those attachments. Therefore, I must create other options. If I have to meet people online, and gawd forbid, go out by myself (I hate doing things alone) I will!

43. get over him
3 entries1,189 people
Though I think of him practically everyday, I don’t get that dropping of the heart feeling when I think of him. Well, sometimes I do, but for the majority of the time, I am able to let the thoughts of him pass without my heart dropping, getting deeply depressed for days on end, or crying. I definitely have my rough times, but now it seems as if they pass over more quickly than they did before. I’m sure part of the reason I still think of him as much as I do is because I have too much times of stillness going on, giving me nothing but time to think of him.
My current social status has not helped with the getting over him because the two people I’m close to are partnered up and can’t go anywhere without their significant others, but it’s understandable. I just wish that a separate group of singles to go out with and just be crazy and silly without pissing off their partner. So, to help with the social part of my life and in hopes for that speeding up the process of getting over him, today I joined some meetups and volunteering social groups online in hopes of meeting new people and getting out more. I’m not into meeting people to date, I’m mainly interested in meeting single females to go out and be goofy and have a good times as single gals. I have nothing against meeting a guy, but only if it’s as a friend…nothing more at this time.
I also plan on slowly getting into yoga. I’ve looked up a few yoga studios in the area and in the near future hope to check them out; another opportunity to stay busy and meet new people. Looks like this goal may result in my reaching an additional 4 goals!
He’s been entering into my thoughts (as usual), but I’ve noticed to not really fight the thoughts…just accept the thoughts by inhaling it in and exhaling him out of my system (letting go). I visualize the thoughts flowing out of me as I exhale. It may sound really cheesy, but it has been working so far, somehow…
