hi Bttrfly you shouldn't look at it as a struggle. Its more you are not ready yet.
In my case I met someone off my network of friends and contacts. It just happened doing activities I liked. Trust me i was reserved in the beginning and I still am. I also have the fear of XW waking up one day and making true contact. I last saw her face to face over a year ago now. we never had that talk for closure. never argued about the situation. It was just she left and we divorced. Monstering me to whomever would listen and when that failed she monstered the girls.
So slow pace is the only way.
You have a lot to give and you deserve so much in return.
as for the selke award. Hard to cross reference to aromatherapists :-)
