Re: Beth
Hi Monica,
first, thank you for the hug. Thank you for the congrats with no drinking. Thank you for your post.
Okay, next, as for how I am feeling with this situation. I think most appropriately, I fall between 9. Pessimism & 10. Frustration/Irritation?Impatience, depending on when I think about it. I have all 4 feelings, although irritation is not nearly as prevalent. I think frustrated that I don't trust myself, impatient that I want to be past all of the 'what ifs? can I do this? omgosh, how do I do this?' and sometimes, pessimistic that I will not find what I desire...all this referring to a healthy, loving relationship with a like minded man.
Sometimes, I think it would be easier to just say "NO" to a relationship, then I realize that is me taking the 'easy' way out. I heard James Arthur Ray speak before and he said (not verbatim) that it is easy to say you can have a good relationship when you are home by yourself, with no prospects in view. LOL I understand this...only too well!
Thank you for the link to EFT. I have attempted it before, yet maybe then I was not ready?! I will take a look at it later in this day (now Wednesday in EST). I am off to bed.
Peace,
Beth
