I sure appreciate all of the replies on this thread. I think I've been hiding more this past year because I rarely have any time alone. So.....I hide from my family by staring at the computer a lot.

I also hide from some relationship issues that I've never been able to "fix". It takes two to fix it. When one party won't work on it, that's pretty depressing. Sometimes I just have to hide when something new is thrown at me.....something that I have to learn to live with.

Thank you for letting me know that I'm not the only one hiding.
