Hey antlers. Sorry to hear about the phone call, but it sounds like now is the right time to start DBing in earnest. Remember, don't believe anything they say. At this point, actions speak louder than words.
I thought I had been! I had so much hope! Still do...despite the conversation last night. I don't know if that's a false hope that I should let go of completely, or if I should contuinue with it? It's hard not to believe the things that she said last night! She started crying while talking to me, because of the crap that she endured, and then she got definite and defiant and made the statements that I mentioned earlier, among other equally painful ones. I know what you're saying about not believing anything they say...but damn! I guess we'll see what actions she takes. The ball is completely in her court. She told me how she felt, and I told her how I felt.
I'm pretty sad right now.
