Dear friends:
Over the years I have kept my private life some-what of a mystery. My reasons being I am not proud or should I say very comfortable with my private life. I remember several months ago there was a post to let everyone know about our familes so we could learn more about each other. I ignored the post as best as I could.
Recently as most of you know I went into business for myself, hoping that my work, endless hours would push aside my troubles with in, a complacent optimist is the best way to put it, waiting for things to get better and taking the beating day in and day out.
I have been married to an alcholic, abusive, sometimes physical, but mostly down right mean and nasty. For eight years I have pushed aside the terrible situation at home only to keep having it appear over and over again.
Latley I have been attending ALON meetings and getting some side counceling on how to deal with this situation. Apparently there is no dealing, people will not change unless they want to or they bottom out, unfortunatly neither is the case in my situation.
I have made a desicion to move on. I tell you all this because some how I feel connected to you all and just maybe there are people who can guide me through this time, maybe someone who has been it through themselves that can share some guidance.
I ask for know pitty, I blame myself for allowing it to go on as long as it has. It is easy to pass blame onto the other person but I belive it is only me and me only that can make a change for the better.
So I ask if there is anyone who can share a smile, story, a war story or two then PM me. The chips are in my hand now and I shall over-come.
Mr. Milas
