Cautiously Optimistic

[Done in VA]

[b]To me.. it takes a "mindest" to "win" at this DB'ing stuff. After you have been "here" a while you tend to find people that you share a common link with. Something about the "story" just makes you want to post. The weird thing is that usually you can read a "first" post and get a "feel" for the person. [b]You have the "mindset". No question about it. As you walk down this road you will learn many things. I used to tell people you are about to learn more about your spouse than you ever thought possible. Keep that in mind. The "goal" is for you to "stand up" against this stuff. Again, as I have said many times before the things we find attractive about something.. can become bothersome.. in excess. Keep the "focus" on what you can change and improve upon. The person YOU are is still there.[/b][/b]

Thanks Forrest. I had a weird day today & really needed to hear your words of encouragement. I know I am a very strong person...always have been...may have been part of the issue.

I wish you well. You have lots of capable people "watching" you. I tend to stay over in the Newcomers but I will try and check in every so often.

I really appreciate this...have a great weekend.
