A year down the line....................

[celticangel]

Its a year to the day since my heart was ripped in two .........and I am still standing! I have learned so much from so many different people during this time and have grown up alot too------well at 36 its about time!
2002 was a nasty year in which I lost the man I loved,my gran and my grampa.
Surfice to say the man (and I use the term loosely) didn't have any respect or real feelings towards me and throwing him out after the assault was a good move!
Loosing my gran and grampa (both died) hurt and still aches-----but their love stays forever.
Have regained lots of self confidence and self respect and have been lucky enough to find a guy who is not only my lover and bestest pal, but who accecpted me with all the baggage and problems and has turned my life around.
And my kids, family and friends think he's great!

just want to let him know that although I have bad days that I know things will be fine and I love him dearly.

Thanks for letting me waffle on
thanks Dm!!!!!!! :heart:

CA...I'm a firm believer in that we are a product of our life's experiences, and I'm sure all the heartache and tribulation you went through that 12-month period only made you a stronger, more caring person. It's hard to believe that when it's happening, I know, but I think you realize that, once some distance has been given, it's easy to see.

Congratulations on making it through, and for realizing that there are good things out there waiting for you. I think you've got a heck of a start with that man of yours, and I'm wishing you the best.

I didn't know my Angel was posting this....til now, and I've been with her ALL day!!

I feel the need to tell all you guys just how REALLY SPECIAL this lady is; not only has she got through the past year relatively together, she got herself hooked up with ME... which, if I hadn't been VERY lucky (i.e., had something left on my Credit Card!!!) would never have happened: I was a "bad boy" myself about 18 months ago, which is why I'm (almost) divorced.... but my Angel chose to take a chance on me anyway, and I have NEVER been happier in my life than I am now, apart from the night my daughter was born!!!

She'll probably argue with me about this, but I reckon she is a VERY strong lady.... as well as being just as cute as a button! :D She has changed my life simply by being part of it; my daughter loves her to bits, AND gets on with her two kids... good, eh? (Oh yeah... the lovin' is AWESOME!!;))

So, all that's left to say is.......


LOVE YOU DARLIN'!

DM (lovin' being in love!!)

What doesn't kill us makes us stronger.

Your ex did you a favour.

Thank him and forget him.

Good luck to you both.

Even in this world we think might be falling, love still prevails!

Maybe there IS still hope for some of us. (sigh)
