<i>Which... under such pressure... you may be coming across as... desperate?</i>
The exact opposite, actually - which is my problem: I leave any man I date that shows me a whisper of desperation. No one has left me since my husband, and I leave them because I think they are...too desperate. Too wanting to be close.
I'm not old enough to be desperate for babies. I am young enough to have been damaged for life. He MAY have broken me in some fundamental way, but I'm not willing to accept that fate.
It is in the shelter of each other that people live.--Irish proverb
