I am back on here after a long time! I am so grateful these days! So much has happened since the last time I was on here. I just went over 1 1/2 years since my AH passed away. I am grieving a lot less & am finally on the other side I think. I believe that the reason why I am doing so well besides the fact that I just am, I am in a new relationship. Actually, I have been in it for almost a year. I met a wonderful man last July. It has been almost a year already. I wasn't so sure if I wanted to mention him on here yet. I am now sure that he is the true love of my life. I feel so much more emotional intimacy with him than my late husband. I am convinced that after 23 years of marriage & one & a half years later after his death, I can truly say that our love was real, but not like this. I am more connected now than ever before. I met him just in time. Just when I felt I was ready for true love again. Really I think that he was just waiting for me as I was for him. We met here in my home town at a place I frequent. It was the 4th of July. I felt connected right away spiritually. I prayed for this. I really did. I believe HP sent him to me. This may sound a bit much for some people. I guess you just know when you know.
So, now I am living my dream my prayer. God is so good. I hope the Program works in our relationship. I have to sometimes turn things over, but all relationships have glitches. I just try to remember that if we go through stuff, I can start my day over or do whatever I can to make it work. I hope I am doing this in a healthy way. I feel like he is right for me. He feels the same way. I hope this doesn't sound like another 12 step program. I still am an al anon member. I just am so happy & content that I wanted to share it with you all.
Hi Kathleen, Thank you for your share. I find it so inspiring and I'm so happy for you that you are in a good space! I am sure of 1 thing, the program works. Sending positive thoughts your way for all things good!
Kathleen, it is so nice to see you back on the board. So many members have disappeared. And, you have such wonderful news--I feel your joy and hope. Of course no relationship is perfect, but if you two can communicate in a real way, you can weather the storms. Welcome back!
