You're most welcome!
That's it, yeah, your story did feel like something out of a movie or a book! I got the same impression.
This last relationship just shows you how much you are on the right path. Longing to be the fullest version of you as possible and being true to yourself is a sure sign!
It must be incredible to feel all that love, at long last.
I am on the same path as well, probably not as far as you've come, but I'm starting to see what being true to myself is like. My latest dating attempt showed me this. My insecurity still is too great and can turn (some) people off, but at least I am becoming more comfortable with showing my vulnerabilities and expressing my needs. Is this how it feels for you?

Is this how it feels for you? yes, it is! i feel a real tenderness and liking for myself and i feel brave when i show up as i am, as i truly am, without defenses or hiding. sometimes i feel awkward and strange for who i am but i jus hug myself about that too. it also makes me feel warmer and more nurturing to other people, this self awareness. that’s why i want to participate here the way i am becauae i see a lot of people trying to sincerely find their way and i know what a poignant and powerful process that is. for all of us, regardless of our past or attachment style! |

Is this how it feels for you? i have an author currently wanting to write a book actually, she knows me for the last four years and has seen my process now and she wants to capture it but i just can’t do it. i want to just live forward. she said all i have to do is sit and talk and se will record it and make it a book. but for now i will just be anonymous on forums and stay looking forward as much as i can haha. |

Great to hear! It really sounds like you've come a long way.
And thanks for all your contributions and for cheering on struggling people on this forum!
Cool that someone would want to write a book about your story! Do you think that you're reluctant precisely because you are looking forward as much as possible, and don't want to br thrown back into your past?

Do you think that you're reluctant precisely because you are looking forward as much as possible, and don't want to br thrown back into your past? partially. but also most of the key players are still alive and it would be somewhat of an expose that would have a certain cost for everyone involved. people close to me (related and not related) would be impacted and it would be a high price to pay for all of us. karma is enough. i don’t have a vendetta i just want us all to do better if we can. also it would damage some reconciliations that have been healthy and transformative. my mother is dying and i am helping her to find peace. she would have done better if she could. i don’t want to destroy her. i want to help her heal also. |
