Def of Love-
I just want to share that I am finding a lot of parallels in my life with some friendships as I am with the relationship that go me here, to Al-Anon etc.
I had a therapy appt today where I am talking about this one friendship in my life and it always translates over to my exAH too. She is not an alcoholic, but that does not mean that I have a healthy relationship with her either. Thanks for helping me to see that I am not alone in that experience.
I also find it amazing as one of the "stuffing" group of a couple of things.
1. Stuffing magically seems to make it exponentially bigger than it was/is in the light of day.
2. Regardless of how emotional I am in the moment about something I ALWAYS feel like a weight has been lifted off my shoulders when I get it out and share it with someone, especially previously stuffed items.
3. I am sad that I did not learn to share this stuff as a child, but so glad that I have gotten to participate in recovery and that I don't have to repeat those same relationships today.
