Hello everyone
I just came home from a great meeting in AA
One person shared her heartbroken first marrage and how it took her a very long time to get past the resentments toward her ex.
She told us what helped her, her sponsor asked her what she learned from this relationship?
Her reply... .a child and that's it.
Later in recovery she found her answer
She now knows what she doesn't want
She may not yet know what she does want.
As for me?
I want someone I can trust
Love
Believe
Listen
Care
Reciprocate
Understand
Respect... .
I hope this helps someone
One day at a time, we will get through this.
Absolutely. I know exactly what I do not want and cannot accept.
Right now, I want peace and quiet, my family and friends and to just focus on me. Finding the lost part of me, rebuilding the broken part of me and creating the me that I want and was meant to be.
At some point, I'd like a relationship but now is not the time.
I find being alone quite soothing. I forgot about all of the things I like doing out of simple enjoyment.
I also know I have some work to do.
I
