Hi Everyone. Hope this finds you all doing well, though I can see from some posts, it feels nearly impossible. Keep your heads up, people! It's a New Year and time for New Attitudes!<p>Nothing much to report on my end. Very little contact from WH, which doesn't surprise me. He is, after all, in OW La La Land. I rarely hear from him when he's with her. <p>I got fed up yesterday. Had a "moment". He sent me text message that simply said, "Hope you have a nice New Years Eve." This is my Coward WH's way of saying, "I won't be spending it with you. I will be with OW. But I don't want to confront it or anything, and dont' want to hear your hurt and feel guilty so I'll send you and text and hope you get the hint." WHATEVER!<p>I sent one back saying, "I think you have your calendar mixed up, honey. New Year's Eve isn't until tomorrow! LOL!" And that was it. Heard nothing after that. <p>On my way home from H's Aunt's house last night, I sent him a text out of frustration. It said, "Hi honey. Should I give up? I seems like you have as I've heard hardly a peep from you since last Friday. You know I love you."<p>He replied immediately. "Sorry I haven't been in contact. Doesn't mean I have given up or that you should either. I got my days mixed up with the New Year thing! Doh!"<p>I sent one back. "Ok. Thank you. Please don't forget who I am and that I love you with all my heart."<p>Got one from him this morning. "Hi Venus. Happy New Years Eve. Again! LOL!"<p>Haven't sent anything back. Don't plan to. Difficult to Plan A over a stupid cell phone, so I'm going to leave it. I'm going out with some mutual friends tonight. I'm doing my nails, getting dressed up and intend on having a fab time. <p>I hope you all do the same. Happy New Year to everyone here. Let's all pray for happier times, healthier selves, strength, perseverence and positive energy. <p>Lots of Love and Hugs,
VE

Happy New Year VE,
He can't let go of you either. It sounds to me like he still loves you a lot too... Don't give up. Keep the faith!<p>I have heard this saying and it's funny and true: it's not the size of the dog in the fight, but the size of the fight in the dog. So, even when you feel small and all alone in the world, if you have passion about the cause you are fighting for, I believe you can win.<p>The situation may not change, but you can win over it because painful circumstances no longer have the ability to control you. I hope that made sense... Anyways, happy new year woman! You should be proud of yourself--after all you've been through and you're still here!!! Way to go!
