The end
I think I am at the end of my grief. Just noticed this by chance yesterday. Thoughts still pop up, but for the most part that is all they are...any feelings about those thoughts have pretty much vanished. Thank you Universe! And, as an added bonus, I can actually say to myself out loud for the first time in my life (at least since I was a defiant teenager) that if I'm single for the rest of my life, that will be just fine (for real). No more obsessing that I MUST have a man in my life to feel normal, to feel loved, to have a family, to be happy. I know there is more for me to do in this "process," but to me these revelations are priceless and perfectly enough for the time being.
Laying a little low on the boards right now because, uh oh....another revelation....I need a mental break from the topic of "abuse" and the up close, inside details on how it tears apart the lives of so many good people. Time to check out the news for a change. Nix that....also depressing. Maybe it's time to watch Breaking Bad a second time around.
I am forever grateful to all the wonderful ladies and gentlemen I have met on this site. I hate to imagine where I would be right now without them. I hope that all of us remain safe and healthy, and eventually find our happy.

That is super awesome! :) I totally understand the need for a break though I will miss seeing you on here. I don\'t watch the news as it is too harsh for me. I have lately been going to positive news websites and it gives me encouragement. I just wanted to say I am happy for you and admire your strength. Take care and check in if you can. Big hugs...
I\'m so genuinely happy for you! You have been there for me since I first came here and your support and wisdom and encouragement has been huge. I\'m saddened to think I won\'t hear from you.... But I understand how depressing and overwhelming the boards can be on hard days. I wish you all the best as you embark on the next chapter of your life :)
Sending big hugs! I do hope you will check in once and a while tho...
Ladies, you aren\'t getting rid of me that easily. Probably didn\'t express myself well. Mostly wanted to let folks know I would be cutting back on participating in threads, but that I am still very much here in spirit. ;-)
i get the overdose of negativity thoughhere\'s my recommendations for awesome brainless tv: 30 rock (bow to mr. baldwin), arrested development, the office (the british one, far superior), extras (another ricky gervais, the show finale should be mandatory viewing for all humans) and if you want something meaty (ew) the walking dead!
Uh...adore Norman Reedus(think that\'s right anyway) the one with the crossbow. He had my attention since Boondocks Saints. Drool.
We are getting it my dear friend. Sending you love. So glad you are feeling better. You are a wonderful friend.
Ok Vern you are like the third person now who told me to check out the Walking Dead. I can\'t quite grasp the entertainment value of zombies, but now I have to check it out!.
Love all of you!
Good for you!!
Yay! Great to hear :) You\'ve come SO far and it\'s just brilliant xxx
