[such is life...]

I have been single for 7 years....I am just starting to notice men again.... I have bee on 2 dates ( this month)The first date was really bad really, really bad













I went on a second date tonight....and all we wanted was to be held...... all the guy wanted ; was to do more then hold me...I guess ....well I know inside we are not healthy enough to date. How will I know when I'm healthy enough and ready to date?. My t. told me we weren't ready yet.....guess she knows best...she is my councilor and knows the progress we have made ...and all the other work that needs to be done with us. ( how many of us take our t. advice?) keep in it real...... I guess our t. knows best....how did she even know we weren't ready to date?.....Guess that's what we pay her the big bucks for!!!

I think sometimes we just need to try things ourselves to figure out that T was right. That's not always a bad thing as long as you can get yourself out of a bad situation relatively unscathed.

Do you have any close friends or family that could give you a well deserved and warm hug? That may be the safest way for you to go at this time. As a matter of fact, take your left hand and put it on your right shoulder, now take your right hand and put it on your left shoulder....now squeeze tight! You hugged yourself and there is no better hug in the world than to hug ourselves!

In the mean time...here is a couple of cyber hugs for you

Take good care!

((((such is life)))) even people ready to date have bad dates. Or even ridiculously bad relationships.I love the movie mr. Wrong because it seems like the story of my life before meeting my bfriend. I like Sabby's advice. Be kind to yourself. Get hugs from loved ones . Give yourself hugs. Hugs from me and my dog.

Do you have to "date"? How about just getting out of the house with people who like to do the same things as you?
Go to meetup.com. NOT a dating website! just a website filled with activities that all kinds of people enjoy doing and they get together and do them.
