That is EXACTLY how I felt and what I said (I thought I was readying my OWN posting here, but it is you)

We should never be made to feel ashamed of our feelings. They are facts....not right...or wrong....just simply....facts.

i do; I could write a book on what has happened and how I felt (not to mention the poems I have written about the pain of unrequited [kind of] love.

I know because I have tried to talk about it IRL. And it is so painful most of the time... a little relief every now and then helps enormously. That’s where humour comes in.

If I couldn't have my sense of humor, I would be drooling in a corner somewhere...it is my saving grace in life.

Nor me...matter of fact it is a big portion of my life (too long to go into here and explain)

Tamar: e-mail me anytime: wacalice@aol.com; we can get deeper into the stuff; I feel you are a safe person to share this stuff with......Hugs and Love, and you are NOT alone here....Ally
