Apology

mary, very glad to see you back.
i came to this board hurting very badly myself and am pouring that out and receiving great support in the AP section , whatever works i suppose.
 
Personally, i still don’t want to be targeted as a source of info into people’s exes or relationships in the middle of my healing from my own grief, but that’s where I am at.

Anyway, i appreciate your presence and perspective very much and it has helped me even during your absence. 
Its really nice to not have to walk this all out alone. 
Welcome back, i look forward to sharing more of this journey together. 

group hug 😂 😀

Thank you yasmin. I'm getting back to my normal self, but it will take much more time to heal. Hopefully, I can keep learning here and not make the same mistakes next time.

I totally get it bip and i was going to reach out to you to express my understanding of the tension.
I did come here to heal and support others but found a very different dynamic than i anticipated.  

However, i chose to stay and advocate for my purpose and I know i lost some supporters, I accept that.  The descriptions of DA’s and the DA experiences were so generalized and mistaken that it was simply exhausting and hurtful to even encounter all of it while hurting and needing support so badly. 

but, i gained the safe space i needed to feel out my grief and express it here. I want Mary, Kristyrose, you, and any other person to have a safe space as well that supports their own healing, their individuality, and their dignity.  Their worthiness and humanity,  first and foremost.  I really do, regardless of attachment style.  

I am so thankful, to you and everyone here who made it through the shift. This is a life time of work and I am not done.  May we all continue to heal, whatever that looks like to each of us. 

Thank you so much, I appreciate that you reached out, you beat me to it 😬

thank you, scheme.  you went to bat for us even when it got heated, we made it, thank you for your understanding and support it meant a lot.
Lots of pain on the boards, sometimes a new perspective can cause friction but inspire positive discourse and beneficial changes in the end.
Thank you for the welcome back, and i am happy we are all here to grow together.  It’s so great.  

When you’re ready, we’re here
even when i didn’t feel good posting i was lurking and it was a lifeline through some very hard days.
It’s a great resource and i think that we can all collectively improve the dynamics to some extent.
It’s truly a community, and as diverse as it is we can honor our differences and also our similarities.
Very glad you’re here bip.
