Re:
Vogue, I'm ashamed of myself... of course there are some who don't have any family at all and I'm lucky in that respect.  I don't know if you are anything like me, in that my co-workers tend to become a kind of extended family.  I used to find that helped me get through the rougher times, while I was 'away'.

All the  heartbreak is terrible, but with some envy I read about your family. You say everyone has a family 'of sorts', Well my dear, here you have one person in the world who doesn't. Still. I'm doing fine, used to be on my lonesome by now.

Re:
Thanks Sam... I sometimes pinch myself to check I'm awake..  it's been such a mess.  Can't really blame him for not being able to cope with it any more.. and yet I've had to.  A good man.. yes, that would be lovely. Don't quite know how to sort out the geography yet but I guess that will come in its own time.

I remember the embroiling situation from your earlier posts and the almost nervous wreck state you had edged towards, and now with Mr Heartbreaker, it has become a dilemma. I am not good at suggesting anything in matters personal, nor will I, but I wish you all the happiness in the coming days. All my very best.

My goodness, you are loggerheads here! What a difficult time all the way around! You need to find a good man to love you! It will happen! I love what Azur said, too! sam

Re: Mneme
I've been thinking the same thing Azur - thanks.  Won't be hard to do the second, I'm in my shell now and I'm not coming out again (smile). Lunch was quite nice, my new friend is quite nice.  We shall see.

Hope it was fun, the lunch. Perhaps you could demote Mr Heartbreaker from his current level in the hierarchy. I do this with people who claim a lot of my head and heart space. Not saying it always works for me - smile.  Other thing to do is give him the privilege and experience of missing you. Just my two pennies worth.
