I don't think the cycle is broken yet, but you gotta start somewhere
HUGE SISTA!!!!
Thanks for knockin me on the head with that one,,,,
Of course it comes "gradually and naturally". What a concept, others have to EARN our trust?!?!?! AND we have to LET THEM!!!
I missed you sista,,,,thanks for the lightbulb
I guess its a sign of progress not perfection that we can begin to form our boundary's OUTSIDE of life with A. As repectingme points out, why put ourselves in compromising situations expecting a different outcome? Kudos girl for making the decision to remove yourself from the situation. Detachment at its finest.
But how do I bridge the chasm of the abyss.
I find myself wanting, longing, CRAVING to let go and TRUST certain people in my life now. IMPORTANT people, who can help me if I let them. But have that nagging thing going on in the back of my brain, that they will use ANY information against me if I let them in too much. Having a new sponsor, this can be VERY damaging. So it exhasberates the situation, as I know if I am not forthcoming and up front and honest, it could destroy the relationship.
Any one got some insight on that?
Peace
