There are some people whose posts are very thought-provoking. Noodle always gets my head spinning! Are you out there unable to post? Or are you taking a break? There are plenty of others who are seldom around anymore. Believer (very occasionally) and Anyname are a couple who spring to mind.

Have we lost them forever?

Noodle is a brilliant, articulate woman and I miss her terrible. COME BACK, NOODLE!!

Yes!

I think Believer is just so busy getting on with her life. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

And I do enjoy Anyname too.

And what about that spunky little Fightingalone?

And that prissy Miss Pris?

There's more too, that I think of from time to time, but it's just to dang early in the morning for me to name them now.

TT- I'm still here, and so is my kidney. I do miss Noodle. Hope she is continuing in recovery.

Believer - I know you're around. I wrote this back at the beginning of April and then someone bumped it. I'm keeping up with you and the tale of the spanish speaking pitbull! Does he wear a sombrero ?

I'm around..seems like I've been here forever..lurking most of the time though.

I have to say that I too enjoy reading noodles threads and replies.

I enjoy reading ALOT of peoples posts on this board. There are so many that I couldn't possibly list them all.

I think that ALOT of people wonder why those of us that are WELL into recovery....even years into recovery stay and post...whether on a daily or sporatic basis.

I for one always ending up back here at MB because it was my haven when my H was a WS and into early recovery. The people here are some of the most caring people I've ever had the good fortune to meet.

I've seen horrible things done to good people and good people doing horrible things. It's really amazing now that I think about it how much MB has opened my eyes to the "real world". I realize now how sheltered my life was before my H's A.

I pop up here every now and then with the hopes of helping others realize that they are NOT alone in what they are going through. There ARE others out there that feel the same way they do....and there ARE others out there going through what they are going through.

Though I can only post from my own experience...I would hope that my experience could help someone else.

In my 4 years here....I've been helped...offered help....met GREAT people....been 2x4'd too many times to count....had my differences with others.....felt loved....felt hated and feel that I've grown to be a better person because of it. There is no greater source of support (in my opinion) other than ones family than this board.

I may not have something to offer EVERYONE...and I may tend to go on and on (kinda like I'm doing now).....BUT....I'm here to offer what I can.

So, all we would have to do is call out your name, and you would be here! <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

It's true what you say about this place. It's so hard to leave, but then again why would we want to? It's a nice place.

It's merely a question of balance. I am learning to balance my time here more, and so my life is getting back to normal (somewhat) again.

Now if I could just learn to shut my mouth once in awhile, like you!
