When I started here I was yearsofhurt then after being here for a while I felt much better. I wasn't hurting as much and I realized I needed to change that. Those years of hurt did me no good in my personal desire to change. Those years did me no good in looking toward the FUTURE. So I changed to hurtingless. Heck it seemed to fit. Then I realized that still had me focusing on the wrong thing. The hurt.
I finally got tired of that. I tried to see what I have learned and pick a name that would fit what I felt.
I came up with a few but they were real easy. Thank god I didn't go with the first one which was yankeefan. LOL.
So finally I came up with frognomore. Why because I felt all this time is all I needed was for my princess to love me and then come and kiss me and I would be a prince. Now I know I am a prince. I know it sounds lame but that is how I feel.
I would rather be a prince trapped in a frogs body then to be a frog trapped in a princes body.
So now I am frognomore.

Frog,
I was wondering how things were going, last I heard from you, you didn't seem to be doing well (you posted in my thread...http://www.marriagebuilders.com/ubbt/showflat.php?Cat=0&Number=3107471&page=0&fpart=3&vc=1).
I'm hoping that maybe that was just one of those days that sucks and things got better.
I think the frog analogy is great. I'm sure that's how my DH would see himself. I need to make sure I remind him that he is my prince.
Glad to see you're doing well.

Wow! Great analogy. I was reading your post on 'love quote' and read your sig line and thought "Hey, wasn't it hurtingless who had that quote The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again expecting different results. It's good to know my memory is only failing me MOST of the time. Heh <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />
