Exactly. I have abandonment issues with everyone. Of I want good enough for my own father to want to be in my life. So even after being married 23 years i still have days where I fear hubby will leave. I have an amazing neat friend who loves me unconditionally and has for 12 years..she knows my issues and occasionally reminds me I am good enough. I occasionally wonder about t and misread things but it is my issue and we work through it. T and I have discussed at great length that it is important to have people I am close to even if it might mean I get hurt.
