Maturin - You seem to be maintaining a solid perspective, despite notes of being understandably down. I can relate to the temp-checking. My W has tried it at a few points through the holiday. I've avoided taking that bait. The first time I DB'd, I felt similar loneliness. This time, it has been replaced with enjoying time to myself, with D13, friends, and family. Heck, I've been in relationships off and on for as long as I can remember. Focusing mostly on me (and D13) has become quite welcome. I hope you find some similar peace soon and wish you luck in your decision-making.
