my little man do you like dogs? i have (3) bichons and they have saved my life. i am telling you the truth, if i didn't have them i would be over the edge. have you thought about a little rescue dog or kitty that needs a friend as much as you do. just a thought here. love you. want happiness for you so much. your american mum

If you are like me, our fears control us, living in fear of what people will think, how they will react will they still want to know andhelp us if we let our inner most darkest secrets. The few times i have, i had nothing to ever be afrid of, if you trust someone enough they will never laugh at you, oush you away, run a mile, hnk any less of you, its letting go of those fears that are keeping you quiet that you need to do

I want a friend like that too. I have a few friends, and I really enjoy them but not any one person I rely on 24x7. I used to have a friend somewhat like that but found that you can become overly reliant on one person, and that's not good either. Still, I miss the bond and the trust and all.

What I've read in books is that no one person can fit all your needs. That's why it is so important to have different friends to do different activities with. If you happen to meet someone who meets a lot of your needs, then great! But in my position, I keep looking and hoping but am trying to be resourceful with what life has offered me friendship & otherwise.

    I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
