Hey guys, missed you all too! Things are going great, I can answer your posts and also, he has said some more things. Mish, Kat, Michelle, lovely to hear from you! I have told him about you all, he was impressed I think (afterall, the WAS doesnt get support like this and is often in as much of a dark place).

Hey Dawn! No, keep posting and journalling as much and as long as you need to, your thread is for you, all I meant was, maybe add another summary post afterwards to sum up what you need some help on?? I forgot that, the WAS often stands still emotionally! He has had an issue with his mother, but she has got worse. I see him wanting to make changes but not knowing how to go about it, she is very domineering!

Saffie, I guess we are the lucky ones to get back the life we had before with them. I have so many moments, like you did, that resentments or bad memories pop up, but for now, I smile and keep them largely to myself. I am feeling in quite a position of power already, he wants lots of hugs and kisses and is possibly a little insecure right now about how I feel about him, he seems to need lots of reassurance! (as I do hey). I thought of you after we had a conversation the other night, more of that in a minute.

K - Hello mate! Yep.. he said last night "I want to take you back to Stoupa".. I told him I fear its more built up since we went there many years ago, before their were package tours there. But, I am DEFINETLY coming to mainland Greece in September, so we will have to arrange to meet! So his plan is, his housemate is moving out next weekend, then we are cleaning and painting that house whilst its empty and he will stay with me and we will then pack my place up together.. then move in the following weekend, so 2 weeks time!!! It does seem fast, but then, it just seems like we are resuming normal and it would be MORE wierd to not live together. Apart from that first week when he said he wanted to "take it slow".. we have been together every night bar about 2/3 and no question of not being together every night and all weekend now.
