Fair play Anita, good to see someone being completely true to herself. I wasted a good proportion of my life on a man who was ‘forgetful’, dozy, couldn’t remember to ask me questions about myself and had so many ridiculous excuses and I watered myself down and convinced myself I was being a primadonna. He said he’d try harder and every now and then just gave enough for me to feel safe, held and heard then slipped back.
I just got more and more disappointed and just stopped talking about myself.
there were reasons I let it go on that long , I wasn’t in a good place for other reasons.
I admire her for having that level of self esteem so early on.
Typing as I watch:
i feel for her being forced to try another week with him. He’s no spring chicken, it would take a lot to change a person at this age .
