Coral...
I emailed him last night to tell him at least about the ED, and I feel so much better having done so. At least I don't feel like I'm hiding TOO much now. He called me today to let me know that he got my message and it doesn't sound like he's too scared yet. He really seems like a keeper!! He has been wondering about why I don't spend so much time with him, but he thought it was because I wasn't interested, which was the exact reason as to why I wanted him to know the truth. Time will tell if I've done the right thing, but my heart is telling me that I did. And, yes, my family does know, it's been going on for several years. Being hard on oneself is quite apart of the whole disorder...control freak, perfectionist...the irony of trying to strive for something that truly isn't attainable, yet while trying to control I am exactly the opposite - out of control. :)
