Sounds like last night with your friend was just what you needed
I think we all need nights like that more often!

Sorry you're feeling so rubbish today
Pamper yourself and enjoy the peace and quiet! Bar of chocolate, cuppa, feet up reading or watching tv... make the most of it! I'd give anything to be doing that right now!

I'm not too bad thanks

Keeping busy and feeling a LOT more positive than last week.

Have job interview next week for really good role only 20 mins away from home - that would be bliss if I got it!

So 1 thing at a time I will get sorted... I hope!

So sorry you're feeling ill Dior - something you ate? One of those 24-hour fevers one gets from time to time? As the weather's nice, think of it as a chance to sit outdoors and pamper yourself. I'm sure G can cope very well on his own.

It would be great to meet up. I'm going to Norfolk next Tuesday, but have to be there by 2pm to see a matinee of dp's first show - so may not be able to detour & get there in time. However, could possibly detour on the way back on Friday. Do you want to email me if you might be around? Alternatively I shall be going again at the end of the month - or failing that, I could visit Col anyway on one of my days off (Tues and Fridays) and make it a full day out for me. Since I've never been, I quite fancy visiting the historic bits.

Sorry - didn't get back on last night. As far as I know he's not seeing her anymore. Says he can't understand what he saw in her and it was more a combination of feeling sorry for her because she's so f*cked up, and her being 'easy', without asking for much in return! Nice hey!

I have a date this weekend

And the interview next week

So trying to keep my mind busy and not think about them!

Anyway, how are you feeling today? Any better?

Because he's an arse hole right now I think!
Can't think of any other explanation!

(Have clearly pointed out that the way he's treated her is what's contributed to her becoming so f*cked up, which is part of the reason I think he's found it so hard to walk away. He's there when she needs a lift, needs helping out, needs something picking up, misses her bus home from work... and then jumps into bed with her for good measure )

Anyway. Enough ranting from me! Sorry you're still feeling rubbish

Sounds like things with H are a bit better though. You sound lots more positive which is great news

I guess if he still says that he finds you repulsive then it's extremely manipulative if he is being considerate and loving towards you just to make you lose sight of the real issues.

Could it just be that the more you withdraw from him, the more he realises what he is about to lose? And in turn he is realising just how much he loves you?

Is this something you can talk about in tonight's session?

Totally agree with you. And if he is thinking that, it is his problem and I really hope the counselling helps him sort his head out.

Sounds like he really is making an effort. But I bet you don't want to enjoy that too much because you don't know how long it will last or what his real motives are.

Hopefully the effort is because he has realised that he is so close to losing you and if he doesn't sort himself out fast it may be too late.

I hope tonight is a good session for you
