Ali - the sailing sounds fab!!! Well done on you! And you're starting to get the lingo too!!! You'll never regret throwing yourself into something like that!!! Just the physical high must be getting to you right now...and thats a wonderful thing!

And also - it sounds as if you're on the brink of something... keep your cool...! And remember - no expectations...You're starting to "live" now and find your own balance...and it seems that has been a long journey of anguish, hurt, tears and hopes...

Ali, you've invested so much in this...don't blow anything - your new found GALing, your hopes, your fears...be clear on your way forward...if exBF does come back onto the picture...and it sounds as if he might...have you figured out your reaction? Practice it...just in case...

What would you say? Do?

best - GFI
