    • Hug

      From LindaSWR October 22, 2008

      Hi Lisaj63, How are you doing? I hope you are doing well. I'm sending you a hug! Yes, you and the rest of us girls are so much better off without the JERKS!!! Most of the time, though, they've got our self esteem SOOOOO LOW that we feel we have to put up with their crap, or that we are in a rut or a hole that we can't seem to get out of. But, we CAN get out of it if we just take better care of ourselves and love US, and not these stupid IDIOTS who think they can ruin our lives. We need to treat ourselves with respect and love, not the selfish love that they have, but the "caring for ourselves" kind of love. What helps me is when I treat myself to shopping for new clothes or treat myself to a movie! I stop somewhere after work and just do what I want to do...shop, have something to eat, and go to a movie. It's so refreshing and it makes me feel so much better about myself, and it makes me know that I'm really worth something, not just a rug that he can stomp over! I really enjoy doing something for myself for a change. Have a great day, Lisa. Many hugs and love, LindaSWR Stockholm, N.J.
