Codependency Support Group
Codependency is defined as someone who exhibits too much, and often inappropriate, caring for another person's struggles. A codependent person may try to change, or feel shame about their most private thoughts and feelings if they conflict with the other person's struggles. If you are on a journey towards self-love, this support group is for you. Join us and find others...
who feels this way? I'm afraid to call my friend that I met on the internet because I'm afraid he will get mad at me, nothing HE has done, my ex would get so angry and say I was always up his a$$. I don't want to call my friend too much because he will think I'm needy, but when I call him, he seems happy (wow what a concept) He went to a concert tonight and he did something that just blew my mind!! He called me during intermission!!! He is at a concert surrounded by beautiful ladies and he called me!! I'm baffled! The fact that he is coming to Texas from Chicago to see me! I don't know what to say or even how to react, afraid to care in fear of being hurt but how can I not care? and why is it so hard for me to believe that someone can truly care about me. In the back of my mind I'm thinking.. He has an alterior motive or he wants something! Does this mean that I'm sick and not ready for a relationship?

Hi all,It took many months and unexpected delays, but my court return date for filing against my ex for "enforcement of ligitant's rights" is today. I called yesterday to find out the status, and the law clerk told me he "forgot" to call me this week (he's a real winner, this guy). Since my ex didn't respond to anything from me or the court, I "win". Just wondering from those who have taken...

I wish you the best!
My sister has HIV - a condition that makes it difficult for her to find a someone who is accepting of the condition. She signed up on a HIV-based internet site and has met a few guys there.
The one she's dating right now is a good and decent man. He takes good care of himself, of her, and of her daughter. She is very lucky. BUT - he is the 5th man she met online.
One of them was juggling a handful of other girls on the internet and he never told her about it - a month after they broke up, he called to tell her he had Syphilis (she didn't give it to him - and she didn't get it from him). This guy traveled through three states to meet my sister - and after spending two weeks with her and getting what he wanted, he went back home and never came back. She thought he loved her - he even said so.
Chances are this could go either way for you. You have to be careful and find out who you're dealing with. Cliche or not, actions prove louder than words and that's what you'll have to pay attention to. Another thing you'll need to look out for are his manners. Sometimes, being familiar over the internet makes these guys think they are entitled to a degree of intimacy, but you have to remember you've just met this guy in person and he still needs to earn it.
Dance, soak it in, and bask in the feeling - but don't let it go so far that you lose yourself.
If you call him and he then gets angry then it is better to get that done over the phone.
And I agree that he is NOT likely to get angry about a phone call and probably will not get angry at any thing else either.
He is a totally different person from your ex.
The way I suggest in meeting a new person is to remember that you can say "no" or "yes" only whenever you want to.
The "no" or "yes" is the new relationship boundaries.
You do not have to fall in love instantly as there is plenty of time to test the Man out, or even reject the guy if you decide you want to.
The both of you need to work out things in ways that you like and that you approve of, and it matters what he likes or not likes too, so you will have plenty to talk about I am certain.
It is a mistake to think your friend is calm and cool and he has it all figured out because no one is a superman.
Plan to take things slow and easy and it will all work out fine.
