I need a friend

I would like to have a friend whom I can talk to on a daily basis by email. I just think I need someone who is going through the same things that I am to talk to about things. If anyone is interested, let me know.

If someone here wants to do that that's their individual call
Best to arrange stuff like that by Private Message...

but you're more than welcome to post here daily - you'll get a lot of feedback, encouragement and advice from lots of people

welcome to the community

Hi MS, I would recommend that you also join the Class of November. You will get a lot of daily support and camaraderie in particular there ( as well as posting here).

That what SR is for guys.

We do recommend you use the forums tho, for your own safety and that of others.

Like I said, people are free to do as they wish, but we don't encourage people giving out personal info like phone numbers or email addresses for the simple fact this is the internet

If you want to discuss private things, you can always use our Private Message system - noone sees those except you and the person you send them to

Thanks Dee. It's been a tough 2 months dealing with my ex fiancé's relapse. He broke off our engagement so he could go better himself and recover. I feel abandoned by him. He has not contact me... Could he really be pushing me away so he could recover or was it just his way of getting rid of the road block? I don't think he's still using because his parents are keeping an eye on him like a hawk and also because he works for the family company so he gets random drug tests....

I'm not sure if I answered one of your other threads or not SL

The bottom line, I think, is whatever the reason, he seems to be giving out clear signals that he's moving on. It's been a while now.

I know thats rough to deal with with, especially without an explanation, but I'm not sure what else you can do about it.

I've been obsessed in this kind of situation in the past. It's hard to learn to let things go but I think you need to.

I don't think you need to blame yourself either.

To me it reads like a pretty crappy way to break off an engagement. Maybe there's someone better waiting for you in your future?

We can continue this on your other thread if you like so as not to hijack Ms Queens thread

Hi ms

You will find the 'class of November' on this forum. It is for all those folks who commenced their sobriety in this month. I am from September and we are a tightly knit bunch !! I would imagine the same for November
