Title: Off to do something for ME
Post by: mango_flower on July 13, 2013, 01:53:07 PM
Won't be here for 3 weeks guys - am off to Africa, on my volunteer experience  :)  I leave first thing in the morning.

This is something that I planned to give myself something to look forward to, after the pain of this past 8 months.

This is something I NEVER would have been able to do with the BPD-ex still around - her health issues meant she couldn't have done it with me, and I KNOW it would have caused issues had I gone alone.

So, my challenge to you all whilst I'm gone is to pick ONE thing you couldn't have done whilst in the relationship, for whatever reason. Maybe it's something they hated, or feared.  Maybe it's just something they weren't interested in.

Maybe it's going to a concert for a band she'd never have gone to with you.

Maybe it's treating yourself and a friend to a meal at a restaurant where she hated that type of food.

Do something for YOU.

Stay safe all, stay strong. x

I could list lots i things i wish i could do, but couldn't with him. But ONE DREAM i had postponed for him (he gave me no choice) was to finish my masters in Europe.
