Good friendships are fragile things and require as much care as any other fragile and precious things.
—Randolph Bourne
A good friendship is like a flower garden. It needs attention and care. We start by preparing the soil and then planting our tiny seeds. Our friendships have foundations like the soil, and in them we plant seeds of trust and understanding.
Like a garden, friendships need care and love in order to thrive. We nourish friendships with visits, thoughtful favors, and trust. When we are feeling down or in need of help, a friendship can offer us more than just beauty.
When we work at our friendships, they are not seasonal but bloom in any weather, and they surround us with comfort and the knowledge that we have, and deserve, love.
How can I nurture a friendship today?

I am so so sorry. It's 2.21pm on a Monday afternoon and i have had 2 large vodkas . I couldn't post beforehand...I felt ashamed...people on here have real problems... not my rubbish. I cannot take another day washing/ feeding/ toileting/ medicating my partner..when he says I am pathetic and spits in my face. He said I was the reason he had a stroke...not the 4 packets of cigarettes a day and a litre of whiskey. I am sorry guys. Just ashamed . Xx

I honestly don't know how you cope day to day sweetheart. You are so brave and never complain or ask for sympathy in any way about your domestic situation. I'm so upset for you right now and wish I could hop on a train and give you a massive hug and brew you a lovely cup of tea (I'd even put the milk in first just this once!).
Please try and look after yourself for the rest of the day in however a way you can. Anything you can think of other than a drink. I'll be around at about 4.30 if you want me to call. Just ask honey! xxxxxxxxx

You are dealing with a lot, and we want to help love.
What your partner did to you is awful....I am so so sorry.
Nothing can fix that....nothing can take that pain away, but drinking is only going to help for about 5 minutes.
After that it's hell all over again.
Not sure if you've stopped yet...I need to read more posts....but if you haven't, put the glass down love. We are RIGHT here for you and with you.
And forget the shame....you are amongst friends who love you, understand and have been there one way or another.

There is nothing "not real" about what you are dealing with. There's nothing to be gained, in my opinion, from downgrading your own needs because other people may or may not have it worse. Someone always has it worse. Your stuff is absolutely real and you need care and support and we are definitely here for you.
