Dinah,
Thank you so much for being here and sharing your thoughts with me..
I do feel relieved to feel I have a chance this friday to try to talk with her, I need things to work somehow, and I need to show her that I do need her to stick with me ..that it really makes me lose all sense of safety when i feel she's giving up on me.
You are right, it is frustrating, I feel the same way...I guess they can't know how hard we're trying..and what we're truly feeling inside...
It doesn't show on the outside...
I see progress in things she doesn't and that hurts...As you shared, trust is such a hard thing and we have to keep on working so hard inside and they don't always realize....
Thank you for sharing with me,
I'll share how it goes on friday....
Thanks again...
