I think this may make me sound nuts but here goes...
One of my resolutions (I know, I know) is to improve my self esteem/self acceptance. In order to help with this I have decided to see less of a friend that I do really like but who, through no fault of her own, makes my resolution harder. Dh and I are good friends with her and her dp, through DH's job. She's very lovely and works hard to please everyone etc but I've realised that I am quite often 'faking it' in their company. I'm not like that, no energy for it, and I also find myself swearing less and pretending to find things funny, and generally holding back on my sarcasm and 'me' really.
god I am bu aren't I?? Dh is angry that I don't want to see her as much as he doesn't get it but I just need time to accept that I'm not like that and that that's ok. Am I making any sense?
