@Tomato- thanks for chiming in
@Lola- I won't tell anyone that you're <whispering> old fashioned. wink
@Goldeylox- yes, to balance. One of the things I didn't elaborate on in my other post is that it's great (and even sexy if it's not too much) if we have some 'balls' out in the business world, etc.
@nikblondiew- I am doing the hcg diet.

DonnaFound (thanks to Gypsy) posted some great blog articles on her thread in Surviving. I thought I should bring the info to this forum.
Here is the main link http://gettingpastyourpast.wordpress.com/
And here are some links to fantastic blogs that address specific things--
such as Getting over it-- http://gettingpastyourpast.wordpress.com/2010/01/22/are-you-not-getting-over-it/
on being friends
http://gettingpastyourpast.wordpress.com/2007/06/22/on-being-friends-with-the-ex/
and really good on when who you love doesn't love you
http://gettingpastyourpast.wordpress.com...oesnt-love-you/

Really good stuff. (I didn't post any of the articles because she is very clear that taking her whole blog post and then posting it elsewhere isn't cool.) smile

Heh- and this is where I excel. I post and repost (in other forums I visit) all sorts of really helpful information. My problem is that I have the worst time actually being strong enough to DO what I KNOW I SHOULD. Thinking to myself "Well, *my* situation is different and special." Pfft!
