Deneb~
It seemed like you needed to be "woken up", but I realize that was the wrong approach!!
I never realized how triggered I am (till now) by what I perceived to be others' enabling/ encouraging what I saw as unhealthy and potentially very harmful to you...Spent many years growing up observing others enable very harmful behavior that put me and others in danger. I am sorry my own issues somehow got entangled into yours! It happens.
But if something a stranger says on a message forum effects you that much-imagine if one of your dates, someone you really like, says something down the road? And since you have made so much progress, I thought it might set you back. You know yourself best, so anything I said could be totally wrong-it was only an opinion--think of that.
I'm not going to talk about this anymore; I just wanted to say I am sorry if what i said has caused you to be upset. I only intended to get you thinking about it more seriously. :(
Bright and sunny days are just ahead...Take care!!!
