List away. I haven't been on the alt in about 10 months but I know of at least one.
I do agree that the live ins make us look at ourselves in ways that we might not do otherwise. My H makes me look in the mirror all the time. Think he is doing the same thing?
Have fun in the Big Apple. I love the South Street Market, hell it's been so long since I've been there I don't even know if they still call it that. LOL. I have pictures of the towers from the 80's which were neat to show my son after 9/11.
And yes I will be quiet now.

I still have a page but I haven't checked it in ages. Like I said about 10 months. And to be honest, the pic on it is not me now, my hair has grown a ton again. I have major security settings so I can't be found, I have to find people or undo the settings.
Ok time frame, right around this time last fall through November heavy. Then occassional posts from then until March or so. In Newcomers and MLC, but not MLC right away.
For some reason I have a feeling I know who you are too. Yes Sofaraway, but not a lot of posting just occasional. You have probably read but maybe not put it together.
Are you on the alt?

It's ok. My H broke into my alt account last year when I was talking to my FAMILY and got pissed at that, probably is already on here although I really don't care too much anymore, except that I am talking to people, which he still seems to have a problem with. Most days. I haven't said too much compared to before, when I was angry, and I don't feel like the same person so if I sound like the same person that is a surprise to me.
Besides, by his list, he is way off. Don't worry about me, I have wide open eyes and won't ever go down some misguided road again. But thanks.
I can't live my life always afraid of H but I am now trying to respect his privacy more. But I have to be able to have friends, virtual friends (whatever). Not something that has gone over well in this household for more years than I will tell you.

So I guess we will see if I decide to go there or not.
Men can be such pigs although...Ok I will stay out of that conversation. LOL.
Hey, I continued the convo, Mach was willing to let it drop but I sort of got curious because he reminds me of someone, just not exactly sure who.
Anyway, been on this comp too long today. Playing a dumb game. Boy when work changes in two months I won't be able to play so much anymore. I will never complain about my job again, as it is cake.
And Mach, oh nevermind, have a blast this weekend.:)

Thanks for the quick reminder of where I was compared to where I am now. And don't think H is total jerk, just MLC stuff for the most part. Although I do see some stuff that was always there and will probably always be there. That is where I have to be different.

Gosh, Cat, I KNOW my H would crack up if he knew I posted here!So yeah, I do understand your need for anonymity. I delete temp internet files, and history immediately on exiting DB. Hope that`s enough!
H is kinda funny about my friendships too-virtual and otherwise. He doesn`t get close to people and never encouraged in home entertainment here though I went ahead anyway. Invited couples over for dinner that type of thing until the work load got too much for me and anyhow i found the lunch/coffee with the girls a whole lot easier anyhow.
He did turn on me last summer though and say "You have no friend". Well, I knew that wasn`t true but obviously pointed to some lack he had in himself re friendship.
DBing has made me even more grateful from friendship. No, not the need to tell all re our sitch-just the need to get out thereand have a lot of fun and kindness spread about the place.
DBing has also made me get off my ass and widen the friendship circle-part of my open door policy now on letting life in!
As for virtual friends-met a few through my genealogy hobby and have had a journal for YEARS(Oh, H will SHOOT me for this!) through which I`ve met a few very dear people.
Would love to have the courage to meet them in real life. Actually I think I will. Though I do worry about how to explain their existence to H.I can hear him already "Where on earth did you meet that woman from Darwin?"
