WHEN PATIENCE IS LOST

[Ambivalent]

I have no clue where I'd be without you guys right now.

This board is a an invaluable tool. Too bad the lc'rs don't have this . It may help them work through things much better and less expensive.

I had dinner with my divorced friend yesterday. Just listening to her makes me so sad. She could have benefitted from this .

She is bitter and is still over responsible for her daughter who is mother of one and pregnant.

You can hear the bitterness when she talks about her ex, and how his behavior affects their daughter and will affect the grandchildren.

I tried suggesting that she allow her daughter to make her choices and any fall out from that was her not her responsibility.

She can be very stubborn and fixed in her behavior.

To this day her license plates refer to a very painful memory between her ex and herself. She says she isn't angry but it still oozes from her pores.

I don't want that for her, she has been through quite a lot and deserves better.

I don't want that for me either, when I detach it is much easier to have negative feelings . At present I'm just feeling incredible sadness.

I'm usually a pretty bubbly personality, high energy, creative and busy.

I feel like a completely different person. I do not like her. She has a permanent sadness in her eyes, even when smiling. She is tired, and uninterested in anything. Perseverates on this situation, for even with Zoloft .
it can't stop the thinking

Concentrating is a constant challenge, for at all times he is on her mind.

I wonder frequently, how often do I even cross his mind? Does he smile when he thinks of me? How often does he cry?

I just want us to scoop each other up and love each other.
