Hey guys, thanks a lot for the affirmations and support. I definitely think that being honest about my past is the right way to go. Its gotten easier over the years to open up about as I've gotten better at forgiving and accepting myself. Always an ongoing process.

I've definitely had it in mind that should a relationship come that I ought to go back to therapy, its certainly not something that I'm willing to believe I'm always going to conquer by myself by sheer will alone.

I've got a lot on my plate at the moment (working two jobs) but I certainly will try to be an active member of the community here. I've been through it, definitely have the credentials to lend a non judgmental and supportive ear.

I'll try my best to open up more and give things a chance to develop. If ya'll are into that sort of thing, prayers are always appreciated. Take care!
