To catch everyone (haha!) up on the delight that is my life lately, a quick recap.
Scott asked me to move in with him at the end of April. I promptly got to work organizing my things, told my landlords, quit my job, had a yardsale, and made plans to borrow a friend's truck.
Then he got cold feet.
A friend of mine was going away and needed a catsitter for a month, so I jumped on it - thought it would give Scott and me time to sort things out without pressure.
The last day I was moving into the catsitting house, he told me that he had slept with another woman on a business trip to LA -- days after he had asked me to move in with him.
I'll spare you the details, but it was just like in the movies, all the drama, tears, etc. I was shocked. I'd never been cheated on before, and I wondered how people forgive things like this. I felt like my life had just been ripped into tiny pieces.
Fast forward to now. I'm staying in my friend Laura's place while she's in Ireland. Scott didn't think anything could be repaired, so he quietly started disappearing out of my life. I've done a lot of meditating, a lot of writing and thinking and walking. For three months I've had no job, no home of my own, with my belongings stored in four different places around the county. It's time to make a fresh start.
