NY - Yes, I remember that I'm not supposed to offer any "ILY"s. That's why I withheld from doing so, but I don't think in my sitch that it would hurt to actually do it once in a blue moon. Sometimes I think I need to test the water, but just not too much. Plus, there's the fear I have of getting a response that I don't want. Like when I was giving H the "alright", "ok", or "I know" when he said "ILY" first.
Sun - Thanks for reminding me of the positives again. It always helps. You're right - time and patience. These are the hardest things I have to deal with now. I have been continuing GAL and detaching a bit, but it's the time and patience stuff that's killing me. So beat that into my head, ok?
Thanks for listening.
Valerie
