----You're welcome. :o) and gosh! thank you for the nice compliment. I can't believe I was understood and that I didn't confuse you!! maybe there is something to learning to communicate first on internet forums....... You made my day! :o) (I've been working hard in therapy- learning to communicate .... probably sounds silly to most but I don't think I ever learned.... hardly talked at all when I was a child.... isolated myself from about everyone.... no friends.... was alone a lot.)
>> Perhaps I overly- judged the isolated incident and didn't think that maybe he experiences grief and even relationships differently. Still, i think i best work through my grief first before getting into the relationship. It would be very hard to feel misunderstood during this time in my life.<<
----- I agree, it would be hard to feel misunderstood when one is so vulnerable. (BTW- sorry about the loss of your father.-- I've lost my dad too) I wish you the best and hope to "see" you around here. :o)
