Hi Spottedowl,
Its hard when you allow yourself to be open with someone who is supposed to be caring and nurturing and the only thing they do is protect themselves - you take the chance and hope that they will show that they really do care when all they sem to care about is themselves - I am sorry you had this experience I know it would have taken a huge amount of effort to let her know what happened and you didnt get the feedback that you needed and deserved - I hope things improve for you - we are here to listen if you need to shout! or whisper...... take care P7
