Robin, sweetie, my heart physically aches with this news. I am so sorry. It sucks, but at the same time, you're seeing clearly and you have to do what's right for you. Good luck with the job search, and may your life be filled with the happiness that you bring to others.

Robin - I hear you and totally understand! things have changed a lot here too - and we started counseling about 2 months ago and things have gotten a bit better but it has been rocky to say te least....i really would have moved on if i had a full time job and wasnt afraid to give up my home (new pool) and all the other material things i love so much but now that its been a few months - the last 3-4 weeks have been so good i am waiting for it to flip but i am glad i didnt just walk away....not to say it wont flip but for now i am greatful to our counselor she is a blessing and he is listening to her so that is what matters he is trying so much more and it makes me stay and try too....good luck I will hope for the best for you guys!

ROOOOBBBIIINNN, where are you? I want to give you a hug. I am sorry you have to go through this. I knew you were going through a rough time, but I didn't know it was this rough. I IM'd you earlier, but you aren't there. Call me if you need to talk!! I would call you, but I don't want to intrude when hubby might be standing right next to you.

HUGS are coming your way.

Robin hunny,
I feel your pain and I am so glad you shared with us because, once again, it shows the other unspoken of side of the surgery. People don't realize it changes your WHOLE life and how you once behaved sees to mean other things now (flirting is my down fall as well) I don't mean things by it but people think of it differently now, its frustrating!!
Add me to your list of friends you can lean on. I could second alot of your emotions there, but we can keep on moving and make it work out. We women have this inner strength that can carry us thru some awfully dry times.

Heres a good quote I find applying to me, and maybe you...
"People change during 3 seasons: when they hurt enough that they have to, when they learn enough that they want to, and when they recieve enough that they are able to."

Always seek counsel from solid leaders, whether professionally or spiritually

Sending prayers and love,
Sunshine :-)

Sending you hugs and more hugs
