Getting some good sleep is really important. It will maximise your capacity to deal with things in front of you and will assist you to remain rational. I went through a fairly traumatic event a few years back. I had weeks and weeks of poor sleep and panic attacks. The lack of sleep meant I was...

I hear you. I don't have time to offer much more at present....but, yes..I think I understand the position you may be in. I've been there too.. Can you step back for a second and get some perspective ? I'm not sure of the intricacies that may already be present.. Wish I could write a bit...

Yes.

I don't get on here that often either/or even less often post ! - Great news about getting the band back together !!!! Fabbo ! There's nothing like playing music with other people. I often look at my child playing with mates....I think I have the same smile when I play music with my mates...

dinged, I can't add too much to the good advice you are receiving from others. I just write to add support to that advice, and support to you. It is heart-breaking, to be sure. Stay strong. Get as much help as you can, from wherever you can get it. I hope you have some close friends nearby. I...

I'm happy to provide historical info that sits behind this song...If people are interested.. Although - It's all there..

That is indeed a happy song for me !

Charlie - I also side-stepped a discussion which included the word "revolution" As that's a word I take seriously. There are pretty significant "revolutionary" actions taking place in the world... It is amazing !! It's probably not 1968 or anything like that...but...inspiring.. Could I...

Thanks Mohegan - You describe your relationship so well - I can feel the rays of sunlight she brings you ! I have looked after my girlfriend's 2 children every thursday for the last 4 years - She works late on a thursday. She looks after my kid on a Monday, when I work late.. I'm so...

I can't see value in continuing this discussion in this thread.. It seems unreasonable to the original poster. DS, I wish you luck in your search for and your creation of your own definition of family. :)

Sure. I'll rephrase. I'm a single mother, and I find it insulting. Of the single mothers that I know, those wonderful strong women who are raising gorgeous, well-adjusted children and also managing rewarding careers as doctors, nurses, teachers, baristas, accountants... all of them would feel...

As a single mother, I pride myself on being completely financially independent, and also of being capable of providing quality parental care at all times. If I were approached by someone who came to the table with some $$$ and an attitude of, "Let me help you take care of the kids," I'd be...

That's so gorgeous, lovely and beautiful...I'm all cheerful now, thank you :) BIG congratulations to you !

I hear you ! I got divorced in the last couple of years...it is stressful, and it does take up a lot of mental space. As does work projects etc. I think you'll always have "windows of opportunity" in the dating world as you come across as an impressive person ! I think the windows will stay...

Yeah - that's a lot to keep track of. Best of luck though. I wouldn't have the mental capacity in honesty....my poor brain couldn't keep up regardless of diary/spreadsheet systems. I've recently started thinking about how much I get my brain to do for me - And how much I should really give it a...

Awesome ! :)

I've been thinking about the love we have for children/our children. There's a child on their way now ! :) Congrats to those !! There's so much discussion here about love. I'd be interested to hear people's take on the love they have managed to cultivate with a child/or to have been lucky...

NYC, How many people are you dating ? Do you think it might be useful for you to spend some time working out the likely path of "current, existng interests" before adding potential newbies to the mix ? And I don't mean path as in "happily ever after"....I mean spending time and energy and...

RP, I was wondering if there was specific feedback that resulting in you wondering if that's what they were thinking? It would seem entirely possible than none of them were thinking that, or 20% were, or 5%. There would seem to be danger in assuming people were thinking that, and you could be...

I agree with what others have said. All to often when we try to "control" our feelings it sort of translates to "don't feel" them.. Which gets you nowhere in terms of healing... Feel your feelings - It's what they are for ! Best wishes for your healing...sorry you are hurting..
