I understand the thoughts of 'how did I get here?'. My mum once said to me, whilst I was in the depths of post natal depression, 'One day, all this will be 20 years ago!'. Not particularly comforting at the time, but she did have a point - it will get easier, believe me.<br />XFootballers Kneeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02724482190095647499noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5778330150286788997.post-22251710060659507002010-02-20T12:47:47.999-06:002010-02-20T12:47:47.999-06:00This is possibly the most raw post I've ever r...This is possibly the most raw post I've ever read.

I would love to chat all this through with you....and then say 'oh sod it' and just compare our shoe collection.<br /><br />Heather: You can't imagine how good it felt to write it. Of course, in the warm, sunny light of this grand Chicago morning the fears have diminished a little and I know it makes SENSE to move on - both from both Chicago and my ex (weird how I still don't understand how he is no longer in love with me...I mean, I am so bloody gorgeous. And incredibly modest to boot. I know that properly understanding it may never happen and the key is just to ACCEPT it. Ah, so much easier said than done). And now I am just totally daunted by how much there is to DO. And that forms part of my reticence too - so much easier to just stay in limbo and do bugger all.<br /><br />(Talking of bugger all - loved your post on anal sex! and your hairy poem. perfection)<br /><br />Not Supermum: Just thought of another reason for me to move home - I can come along to a BMB meet up!!!! Hurrah! And I know - this whole cognitive dissonance thing is a pain in the bum (oh - back to Heather's post again on anal sex...)Nicolahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07017352687163694581noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5778330150286788997.post-29446885045589058642010-02-19T07:52:19.603-06:002010-02-19T07:52:19.603-06:00Like Heather, I have no words of wisdom, except to...Like Heather, I have no words of wisdom, except to say that moving on sounds like the best thing you could do at the moment.
