The material presented
here is not Al-Anon Conference Approved Literature. It is a method
to exchange
information, ideas, feelings, problems and solutions on a personal
level.
I have been having my struggles as of late and not only with the wise old timers, but with the new comers I am learning so much! I am so glad to listen to their ESH. Where they are at also reminds me of what I have been through and thanks to Al-anon it's a lot easier. I have my handy tool belt with lots of tools and it really helps when I remember to use them instead of slipping back into the ways of old that didn't work so well. I am so greatful for everyone who posts and put themselves out there for us all to grow and learn and even give some ESH back, take it or leave it, sometimes it just helps to hear myself say what I need to do for myself. I know this journey is about progress not perfection, because well I am human after all! Thank You all! Sending you all love and support always!

Breakingfree, we have had a very similar past few weeks! ((HUGS)) to you, and sending you lots of support and positive vibes. You have helped me so many times, and I am grateful for it!
I keep thinking of you and hoping you are ok. You faced some hard things lately. At least you have the courage to date!
Wonder if we think too much about it, we make new lady friends but don't have to analize or wonder how they feel about us and all that bolony.
My thing is to think of men as friends, somehow it makes it lots easier. I am talking elders at my congregation, my doctors, single men I meet. haha there are just so many....haha
It's like I just want to know people, if it gets where I am interested in a relationship way great. But he is going to have to work hard. I have always been like that. If its worth getting to know someone, it will take the time it takes, and NO way are you staying over! lol
Anyway hope you all are doing ok. Please vent! hugs,debilyn
