Quote: Also realized H was right last night when he accused me of letting other people's drama upset me. He pointed out (correctly) that we are not them, and I shouldn't be let other people's drama get to me. He's completely right.
I do this too... It's hard though when you read sitch's that resonate...
Quote: I realized I have a real paranoia of H's making new friends. Mainly female. I wonder why??? (That was sarcasm. ) Both times things got bad, it was right after he had this new "really cool" friend.
Right there with you with this as well...I am working really hard though on this...watching my reactions to make sure I'm as open to hearing about his classmates, etc, to ensure that he doesn't feel as though he can't talk or share with me for fear that I'm going to overreact and ASSume the worst.
Ah, well, sounds like you guys did some good growing.

Relax. Appreciate. Be calm. Laugh. Enjoy. Be secure. Be loving. Be loved. Don't personalize. Don't ASSume. Accept. Be grateful.
