Thank you CosmicRose I appreciate your input. I also must add that I absolutely love your signature. It reminded me of something I read recently (I saw it exactly when I needed to see it) "If all you can do is crawl, then crawl." I've found myself thinking about my relationships a lot lately. Ive been here at PsychCentral since August. Today I made the decision to check out this section of the site. I also have a mom and sister who's relationships could use improvement so maybe I'll hang out here some more.
