For a while I have tried to find a thread I had started when I joined the forum that could be a "home" thread for me.
Being busy about the forum has been a coping style, where I can acknowledge all my different life experiences that had been silenced. Possibly do some good and prevent things from getting worse. Like the little boy with the finger in the dyke.

I always say "I'm waiting with baited breath" @Former-Member It's just a phrase (interest).
I say it to @Former-Member waiting for her pictures.
I say it to everyone.
I've just been badly triggered by someone (not on Forums) - Not what I needed.

My ex told me Yes to having children, when we married.
Then: "I lied to you, I never wanted children", when we separated @Former-Member
The question (Online Dating) was: "Why do I not have any children"?
I believe that Anyone in my situation would find that Question (Why do I not have any children) Very Upsetting....
