I think I've made a serious mistake here; in being so open and vulnerable with people I don't really know.
This can be a very painful issue for me, very painful, and not something I care to debate in a public arena. I could so easily do that, and try to express my opinions and where I'm coming from, and how I'm dealing with it; but I get the distinct feeling that some people just don't give a damn; so why should I give anyone the satisfaction of exposing my vulnerable inner core (so their egos' can feel superiour?).
While some of the particular ideas and solutions offered here, are not how I would chose to deal with these issues, I very much apprecieate the spirit in which they're offered.
Thanks for all the fish!
Jamie.
