Valentine's Day with my A


Hi-So today is a day to celebrate love and appreciation of loved ones.  That is easy for me to do except with my A.  I did buy a generic card and some scratch offs.  For me I see several presents waiting.  I tell my A I am no longer "in love" with her.  I love her as a human being, a family member, and she is more like a sister.  She killed my romantic feelings over the last 10 years of her drinking, driving, sneaking around, and lying.  I am totally honest with her about all of this.  So I'm not going to feel guilty today.  I am sad over the loss of what I had or thought I had.  ODAT.  I am ready for today, Lyne

Lynn thanks for the message on love and it caused me to think that self love is also a worthy love.  God doesn't create any junk eh? And you can let us love you also because you are certainly loveable.   ((((hugs))))  smile
