Hello Everhopeful - I think Marf has the best idea - go with him and discuss it with the T. It may be that you could sit outside so he knows you are there, but he is still working through things independently. Whatever you decide, I hope it goes well for you both x

I have no advice I'm afraid - I do know Husband once drove round and round for an hour one time because he just couldn't face going to talk about it all. I was angry with him at the time - but it must be such a huge thing to open that box - especially if it's been shut for such a long time. As...

Oh - I remember Kath and Kym - that was so funny! I love the old X Files! And there's something in the UK called Allo Allo - old, but still funny! And I'm a closet Buffy addict...

Ooh - been there, done that... had to buy them all again!!! :roflmao:

Oh I like your style!

Now that's a good question! For me, it's the fact that he quite regularly does this before leaving for work. That may speak volumes in itself... but he will be "hurtful" for want of a better word and then walk out the door on what I would call bad terms. I know as the Supporter here that I am...

Hello ill and thank you for your reply. No... no apology. I think that's my biggest issue - not the mud, or the muddle. He stormed off and left me hurting. Then came in to work to see me and was all sweetness and light as if none of it ever happened. I have no idea if he even knows he was...

I really wasn't sure what to call this Thread, so I'll explain my morning this morning and then see... I have X number of things to do on a morning as does Husband. He gets up 10 minutes earlier, feeds the dogs and makes the packed lunches. I come down, have a coffee with him and walk the dog...

Do you know, I've actually done that!!!! :eek:

Hi Drew - I am so glad you made the choice you did. I am also so sorry that you had to make the choice in the first place - like someone said above, death is one thing, but that is something else altogether. I hope that your son is okay x

That's awful! I do get that perhaps they don't have the perfect relationship - I don't know - but honestly. Even if they were constantly at one another's throats you'd think they have more decency than that!!! I think all you can do is take the moral high ground, be there for him and hope that...

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! That is SO much better!!! :happy: I went for a sports massage with a posture expert a fortnight ago and had a follow up appointment yesterday. She was great - didn't poo-poo my theory at all. The first session concentrated on my shoulders - they took a week to...

Personally... I think you will know when it is time to let go. You can't force yourself not to feel for someone and it would be entirely unfair on someone else to "move on with them" if you still love this other person. You can move on by doing things for you - just don't jump from frying pan to...

I had a message from an old friend the other day. She lives the other side of the country but used to live where we were and was always a friend of a friend. She then became a friend and once she moved away we kept in touch via FB. She said that she was worried about me as she felt I was living...

I got... a pooping chicken!!!!! :p Hours of endless fun :roflmao: Plus... something that I desperately wanted - a beautiful notebook. I wanted to start writing down things to remember - from how I felt at certain times and how to deal with it with hindsight, to how much fun we had eating...

Wow - that is all absolutely fascinating. I have no idea if I fall in to that catagory, but would hazard a guess that I do. My mother was sectioned when I was 11 with Bipolar and my dad did the very best he could in totally unconventional circumstances. There was no intent of hurt, but I always...

Glad you're ok Badger - sometimes we need a wake up call to concentrate on ourselves more. I'm not saying he needs to be out of your life - but perhaps it's time for more Badger Time... So, if Thanksgiving was yesterday, does that make it your birthday tomorrow? Hope you have a great Badger...

Hi Everhopeful - that's some catalogue and not something that any child should ever have to deal with. My first thought was, do you know anything about your sufferer's father? It almost sounds as if she blamed him for something from a very early age - not something he could be responsible for...

Hello - is he having or has he had treatment for his TBI? Stroke-like headaches sound very serious to me - I'm just wondering to what extent the brain injury is causing the behaviour as opposed to - or as well as - the PTSD? x

Hi DeathRay - just from my point of view - I think it's very easy to make the person you love your whole world and their problems become your problems and then it becomes a vicious circle. Stress and anxiety can cause huge fatigue and he may feel he simply hasn't the energy to spend with...

I did this last year and it was great - unfortunately I can't this year - but just try and keep me away next year!!!!

Oh good thinking! I bet baked tastes nicer too as it should be less watery... hmmm - might have to try that out this weekend :happy:

Thank you for all the suggestions - I had a bit of trouble converting "cups" to "grams" so ended up with a combination of a UK recipe for quantities but combining your spice suggestions... I boiled my own pumpkin - boy do I wish they sold it in tins over here!!!! By the time I'd tried to...

Happy Birthday Mrs Spock - may your day be as special as you are! (very!) x

I went for a bike ride with the dog... it was fab at the time. Now I'm walking like John Wayne and the dog has a limp!!! Think we're both just stiff after doing nothing all summer.... Oh - I am sooooo unfit! :notworthy:
