    General Clearly I Made The Right Decision...

    I'm sorry about the turn things have taken. That is a very low blow! I agree with Kismet, you should try not to take what he said as the absolute truth. That doesn't mean that he will come around and make a grand gesture, but you really just have no idea what is going on inside his head. It...

    General Need Some Advice On How To Handle Close Friend With Ptsd

    I think you made a great decision. It makes you feel better even if he doesn't come around, so I would ;)consider that a win. My guy has been fairly quiet the past few days. I'm wondering if he might be in a bit of a funk again or he could simply be a busy bee cleaning out his garage. So, I...

    Haha! Yes, there is an old drive-in about 40 miles away, been there since the 50s. And, you're so right about the snuggling...or in his case, snogging! Sounds like a good time to me. :)

    General His Advice Spoke Volumes

    Thank you, @technigirl. Aside from beginning to learn the ins and outs of PTSD itself, the best thing about this community is realizing you aren't alone. There are tons of others around here who are going through nearly the exact same thing you are, just a few little details are different...

    General His Advice Spoke Volumes

    I never said anything of the sort @itsKismet. I'm not upset at all. If he asked me to move in, I would. It is what I want, but I haven't said anything about us getting together again in over a month. Would it work out? Who knows? As you say, you can't know someone until you're around them much...

    What Do You Want To Be When You Grow Up?

    All the answers so far are rather deep and emotive. If I'm going with that I'd say, I want to be in love with someone who can and does love me back. As far as I can tell, that trumps everything else - you can walk through fire if you've got someone beside you to hold your hand. On an...

    Songs You Relate To

    My anthem for the past few months has been Olly Murs - Up featuring Demi Lovato. I'm in love, but we're kind of on the rocks because he is still working out his PTSD and doesn't think he can handle a relationship. I'm more Olly's part of the song and my guy is Demi. :p I drew a broken heart...

    Childhood Do Most Parents Tell Their Kids They Love Them?

    My family wasn't abusive at all. As a kid, my parents said I love you pretty often; leaving for school, bedtime, and everywhere in between. But it wasn't said between siblings. As we've all gotten older that has waned from the parents side and is more common between my brothers and sisters...
