Friend of mine asked me what happened to my blogging and I realized it had been a super long time since I said anything here; so let’s do a review.
Husband: we had a big discussion about how I’ve become unattracted to him now that I’ve got a new outlook on life with a healthier way of life, a smaller body, and a desire to do more with our lives. He’s content with the way things are, and finds a lot of joy in playing his World of Warcraft game. He is an overweight man, and explained that he’s always been that way and it’s probably not going to change, but he understands how things may look differently to me now. Only because I know it’s possible to change things if you really want to and it’s unattractive that he doesn’t really want to. He still loves the open marriage, but feels as if I don’t show him the same attention and effort as I do the people I’m dating. I’m not sure that I can give that. We’ve grown apart. We don’t sleep together, we don’t do much together, and I’m trying to work on it. Is there hope? Sure, of course. We’re working on it. He wrote me an email one morning telling me he adored me, and not to forget that I have a good family, and he would still be here when we work through things and I figure out how to fix things with us on my end. I can’t figure that out, until I figure me out.
Me: My drinking got out of control. I’m in a reduction program now, where they aren’t taking away my ability to go out and have a good time once in a while, but learning how to not drink so much when I’m out that I don’t remember the evening. I was starting to get some severe heartburn and none of my pills were working and I didn’t realize that me drinking would knock those out of my system, so I am working on that. This week I’m trying to not keep it in the house as I have a habit of heading home after a stressful day and drinking until I’m ready to go to bed. That’s my project recently is to just not drink at home, and let myself reduce when I’m out. We’ll see how that goes.
School: I hate it. It’s not going to work for me. The therapist thinks that I signed up for too much too fast since I started a new job at the same time that I started working, and started the relationship with The Indian. So that’s on hold now. I hate it. I don’t want to have to go back. Ever.
Kids: I’m having a hard time connecting with them right now while I was busy drinking it up and being selfish, so I’m trying to work my way back in there. I know there’s been some strain in our relationships so I got my daughter in to therapy, and my son is next. I am concerned that my actions may be having an adverse affect on them, so I’m working super hard to get my actions under control. They’re good kids; they’ve been very patient through it all. My son made academic excellence and my daughter excelled in all of her classes. I’m pretty proud of the both of them.
Work: My work is just that. Work. It gets the job done of keeping me busy during the day, but it’s boring.
Open Marriage: I’m in a relationship with The Indian. It’s been 4 months now I think. He’s wonderful. He’s about to meet my husband tomorrow, so I’m anxious to see how that goes. Besides my husband, this guy is the kindest man I have ever met. He has a beautiful soul, and his outlook on life is refreshing and awesome to see. He’s a breath of fresh air and his motto of it’s only one life is part of why I’m working on getting back on track. He’s inspiring in all of the things he’s done in his life. We argue here and there, and he’s definitely high maintenance compared to what I’m used to; so for now it’s a good time, and he’s wonderful to spend time with. What’s in store? Who knows.
I officially lost 55 pounds so I went out and got my nose pierced as my reward. I’m lookin pretty hot if I do say so myself. Still have some body issues though, so it’s a bit ironic lol I’m paying more attention to how I dress and things now that I look better. That’s mostly The Indian’s doing. He’s metrosexual and loves to help me in the fashion department. It’s cute. When we’re out shopping for shoes he even gets on his knees to put them on. It’s cute.
Sex. Just sleeping with The Indian. We have amazing sex. It’s deep, connecting sex emotionally and that’s something I’m not used to. I’m used to just getting it in and being done with it. There’s something strong between the two of us when we have sex. I love our sex.
I’ve been a little ashamed to put out there to everyone how things are going at home as I’m not proud of my behavior lately, and so finally I’m coming to terms with it. Slowly but surely…..getting there.
