ROOT, just peeking in piecing to check on some friends. Sorry about your dreams and about your doormat feelings of late. Its great that you can acknowledge what's going on, though, that will help turn things around.
Ali, I'm still GAL, but I think I'm coming out of my MLC. I'm starting to feel like hanging out with the girls and dancing on bar tables is getting a little old....
Sara, My dreams are divorce ones, or my husband leaving me. And in them I'm not too worried. I just have this sinking feeling. Like, oh well... it's happening again... and my stomach just sinks. I haven't had them lately, but every once in awhile I do. In the dreams I'm so calm and accpeting of everything. I like to think I'd feel that way now after having gone so far. I think I worry about reattaching too strongly. I just never want to go through the pain again. And yet, I have to always keep in mind that my marriage can end. It could happen again. Even my therapist warned me. I can never FULLY 100% believe in my marriage. It's sad because you like to think that that is what committment and marriage is all about. It's being this rock and this stabilty for this other person, and that you can always count on them.
Aud, Yes, I think your are right about the subconscious clearing house. We can't worry about every little thing. We have to live our lives and not let the time pass worrying about things, but even if we push it aside, our subconsious will make sure we somehow aknowledge it.
Lwb, Wow!!! great to see your name. I really thought you might move into piecing. But then one thing I've learned is you can never expect a particular thing, and when someone wants to divorce you, let them. I hope mediation is going smoothly (although not smooth enough to go quickly!!! Take your time!!!).
There is no arriving, ever. It is all a continual becoming.
