I just don't really believe in many things said over here. For example it being a script - sure, what happens seems to follow a certain pattern but we are all so different and we tell a different story when asked.
I haven't been on this forum for a long time but, what I've learned in a matter of weeks, there is a script. You may call it a pattern but it's basically the exact same thing as a script. I thought my sitch was unusual or different. It wasn't. It was the exact same as most ones. Of course there are nuances to each story but the basic SCRIPT is the same.

The fact is this. You have to be in pain before you can learn.
