Progress..

Hi,

A special second thank you to @tyme

You said recently "we are sitting with you".

I found that very non-judgemental and true support.

I had an amazing lunch today with half a dozen powerful, intuitive women..

I came home to toxicity and awfulness, then after the said person went out, I activated my network. I've asked someone with many good contacts to try and help to find an apartment or granny flat for me.

My "person" also told me today that he's thinking of leaving me. I'll play that one carefully because he sometimes uses that as a manipulation.

I also had a big talk to my mum today about what makes me stay in this relationship which was good.

At the end of the day, I'm growing and I'll get there. Never give up guys. If anyone is going through a messy or distressing situation, please don't stop creating positive motion, even if it's smaller steps than you wanted to make. Forward is forward whichever way you look at things, you just have to keep liking and loving yourself. Alice10

Re: Progress..

@Alice10 From someone who knows what you are going through, I applaud you for your strength, and positivity. I know that it seems that sometimes everything comes together very slowly, but small steps are good, and at least you know that you are going in the right direction. If you ever need to talk, I am here for you-kiwigirl64🌻🌞

Re: Progress..

@tyne It has been cold this morning, but right now, I'm trying to pluck up the courage to go for a walk down to a lake close by. I hope that you are having a lovely day.

Re: Progress..

Tyme, this post made me shed some tears. You know, it has been pivotal for me to be in this forum, because I'm hearing GOOD people being genuine, and that has actually reminded me how things should be. Thanx again Tyme. Alice10.

Re: Progress..

@kiwigirl64 that's lovely of you and thank you. Most of my posts are typed in a hurry and during the night, but I'm leaving tomorrow after a huge process to separate myself and my heart. Thanks again for your msg, hey, I hope you went for that walk near the lake 🌞🌞🌞🌞

Re: Progress..

Hi @tyme

Its kinda wierd but was on a high after finding out I got the job and for some wierd reason have been feeling really low these past few days. Doesnt make sense, I am looking forward to starting but can't shake this low feeling. I put it down to all the injections I just had for the on-boarding process mmmmmm.................Asgard
