Hi Hope,
Very true. And I'm feeling very emotional, these days, not surprisingly.
I'm avoiding talking about it, for the most part. There's a part of me that feels guilty about what happened with my former friend, and another that's embarrassed that I got myself that far into a bad situation. And I miss her - sort of. When she was feeling good we talked about a lot of fun & interesting things, shared videos we liked, stuff like that. I'm going to have to make a real effort to get out and change my life in positive ways. It's not all bad - nowhere near it - but I know I need to make a few changes.
