Why would it be best for you to stay away?
Only stay away if you want to, Lee... I am happy to keep chatting. The mobile data seems OK so far.

@NatureLover it's not that I want to or need to, just want to make things easier for you.

Sitting with you, my friend...here to listen or just to be quiet as you wrestle with your decisions...

I know, Lee, my dear friend ❤ and I feel the same about you.
But you staying away wouldn't help me...only if it would help you, then of course, whatever is best for you.

Hi there @NatureLover and @Lee71 ,
It is wonderful to see you are both finding such stellar support in each other still, and on the forums generally! We have just noticed you’ve been spending a lot of time in this particular line of chatting this morning/afternoon and can see this conversation is possibly creating some pressure or distress for you both.
Just a reminder you can take some self-care breaks from the thread or you can tag some other members in the mix, just so it's not becoming a private conversation or replacing a professional one-to-one service such as an in-person or helpline support.
Best wishes, care and gratitude,
Otter

@Otter I don't feel any pressure or distress, but I will do as you ask.
@Lee71 I will take a few hours off the forums... I will be thinking of you, and hoping it becomes clear what decisions to make. Sending you heaps of care, Lee... ❤

Hey again @NatureLover .
I'm a bit angry but not at you.
Odd question do you still watch the videos from the beach I made for you ?
