Great job joining the softball team!

The best advice I can offer about staying strong is to be forgiving of yourself. If you have a bad day, that is ok. The important thing is to accept yourself and be kind to yourself even on those bad days.

If the softball team is going out after a game, but your bf is about to come home -- will you go home to see your bf or will you go out with the team?

For years I would have run home to see my bf. The problem with that is I was putting him first, at the expense of what I needed to be happy. Take small steps if you need to, but try practicing putting yourself first sometimes.
