When I hear the word "friend" these days I cringe. I see and hear this word from so many going through this crisis w/their mlcers it makes me think that they are all reading the same script.
I often wonder just what the word "friend" really means to these mlcers. It certainly can't mean the same thing that it does to us. I know from my own experience that "friend" meant that as soon as I let my guard down, he started asking for things from my home. Stop and think about it, what friend would even dream of doing this, especially after acting like an utter @ss for 6 years, being divorced 2 of those years?
Angelica, I agree w/you. Friends don't treat friends the way that they have been doing. It's really crazy makings.
Sit quietly, the answers will reveal themselves when you least expect them to. The past is gone, the present is a gift and you need to focus on today, allow the future to reveal itself when it is ready.
