The free deserts BTW. Lovely ego boost - yes! You must have been smiling. Decent men only see beauty in a smile, ladies need to have a certain something, but even with that certain something, without a smile - they are unattractive.
My point therefore is this. That friends made you smile. Spend time with her. Smile more. Even if you feel really sad and want to cry - smile. Even on your own. Try it, it makes you feel happier. A smile must release endorphins I guess? I ready this. I remember reading this in the 'dark days'. It helps.
I hope that friend is the one that just listens and validates your feelings. The one that didn't pass judgement I read about. If it is great - spend more time with her. If not double great, you have two great people who boost you!
All the best! Very proud of how you are getting this! And you are....you are moving forward. Very pleased. Give yourself a well deserved hug!
