first ever blog

I bet there are a number who fully understand and its a lesson we never learn, but we can still walk tall dignity and self respect in tack.

Hi Max - not sure what has happened and no need to share - but you are always one of the first to offer support, a smile and help to others - sorry if some has let you down - you do deserve so much better. Take Care

Love and Hugs

So sorry if you have been let down Maxine, in times of need we do learn who our real friends are.

Better to expect the best and be let down than to loose the capacity to trust people, we may be open to hurt but also open to true friendship.

take care

Hi Max,

Understand the disappointment thing, but  once a third party pointed out, that it was not about me, but about the person who disappointed me.  About how scared they were, how upset they were and how hard they found it to cope with my illness that I approached the relationship with a different perspective. I had initially thought this would be someone I could rely on to give me strength.  When I thought about it, I had always been the strong one in our relationship, me being sick was not something the other person had ever contemplated dealing with. Not sure if this helps, but try and think about why you are disappointed. I realised it was because I was expecting the other person to behave like me and really there was no reason why they should. I now have a better relationship with the person I was disappointed in, and we are now being very honest with each other about what we expect of each other. It can be worth going back over it if there is something possitive to be gained. I hope things can be sorted out and your disappointments put behind you, people are basically good and an awful lot of people are really helpful.
