Jo - I wish you were closer. I'd give you a great big hug and take you out for a nice dinner in the city. Then we'd go dancing and have a few drinks. We could hang out, talk and fight the guys off of us.
I hate that this is happening to you. I want you to be happy so badly.
That sounds great fun, except I can't dance (disability, remember).
I danced once, on my wedding day, to the lead song 'It had to be you' - but it took ages to do that right, loads of prepping beforehand and him holding me up!
I wanted to succeed at dancing once in my life, because you can't exactly have a wedding and not dance with your own H, can you? So I did it.
You'd have to find me someone to slow dance with, as I reckon I could do that if they held on tightly
I was off the board running from Hurricane Rita, we are back home now, safe but broke beyond broke.
I wish I would have returned to hear better news about your sit., it makes me sick that things just can't work out for you and Andy. I wish I could come up with some magic advice that would make him see what he is missing.
My XW is in the same rescue mode that Andy is in, she does this because of her addictive personality. She gets mixed up in everyone elses drama rather than facing her own addictions.
I don't know how longer I can go on like this either, I am exhausted, sick and tired of games and emotional withdrawals. I think the C calls my problem co-dependency ( I love her and she uses me). The cycle still continues after 17 yrs.
Anyway enough about my problems, I just noticed the similarity of our XSes in rescuing "low lifes" (for lack of a better description).
All I can say is, you deserve more!! Keep working at GAL and someday you will have someone that cares for you more than they care for themself.
WOW Jo!!! All these men that want to dance with you.....can I sell tickets???
I do agree that you do much better and seem happier on your own. My motto is that if someone can't add to my life, emotionally, intellectually and financially, I'd rather be alone. I worked to hard to be where I'm at and will not give anything up again unless I receive it back. You've made the right decision about Andy.
Come to America. We'll see to it that you and D4 have a great time!!!!
