Quote: It is amazing how a little affirmation and words of encouragement can go a long long way
You know BND you just hit the nail on the head for me over my dilemma about the weekend I just had (see my thread for details). The weekend started with just one person telling me I looked lovely. A person I had never met in my life. It is so long that I heard any compliments that it really threw me but yes it was so wonderful. This same person later on in the weekend went on to tell me that instead of referring to 'when h left me' I should say 'when we separated'. I told him my mind wasn't ready for that just yet but I can see now how saying things his way is more positive. He knows he's been there got the t-shirt and after a lot of hard work come out the other side although sadly not with an intact M.
