Hey Azure~
This is wonderful........

It was good. I felt pretty close to him, but in a different way than before. I didn't feel all desperate for his approval. I felt like he was a friend where we had both been through some serious sh*t, and we could understand each other. I'm glad we talked.


I am so glad you got to talk and that it was so positive.

I just wrote something similar on my thread....you put it much more eloquently....it is good to NOT be desperate for their approval!

I like that you are validating when he talks about the sadness of the past year.

I think I see a friendship in your future. You should feel so good about all the work you have done to get to this point!!


Happiness is like a butterfly: the more you chase it, the more it will elude you, but if you turn your attention to other things, it will come and sit softly on your shoulder.... (thoreau)
