Try to avoid confiding in those people then, BNLsMOM. You basically do not know what to do now, which is OK: the situation is not on fire. Try doing something positive for yourself, not only as a distraction and a way to pass the time without constantly thinking of the problem and the hurt you are feeling, but also as a way to contribute to your own well-being because no one else would. I am out of ideas except for a pedicure with some warm or funky (your preference) color, and then going barefoot at home to appreciate it. Any more ideas?
