I can relate to that - I had arranged to go out with my sister on the anniv of my event and she rang just before were due to meet and said she wasnt coming because she had been out with her ex the night before and drunk too much - so for me that re-inforced how worthless i was - and left me with no plan - I eventually rang a friend and chatted for a while - a bit stunted i admit - but i knew i had to do something - thankyou for letting me know i am not alone in the wilderness where monsters are real!
