Thanks True! Yes, I imagine that some of us will remain for a long time...

My family is so concerned that I will pine away for LL forever and 'waste' my life on that...seems as if they don't understand.

At any rate, we are the ones who decide whether to stand or not. I love that they love me...but it is hard sometimes...

I have been reading some spritual books as well as re-reading my DB books and they have been helping me channel my anger. I know that I cannot stop LL from filing if he feels he needs to do it. BUt I have decided that HE will have to be the one to do it. I have never wanted a D so I am not going to file for one...

So we'll keep each other company, k?

Hugs,
Valentine
