Hi Lovelies
I'm feeling in trouble right now and heartbroken.
Yes it seems my life lately is a huge lesson on the concept of "Opportunitiy Cost" - the definition: this is based on what must be given up (the next best alternative) as a result of a decision. Any decision that involves a choice between two or more options has an opportunity cost.
I felt my heart break a little more last night when I realized something -- I could have had something meaningful and healthy with someone but now it's too late.
Beginning in early 2010, My decision was to fall head over heels in love with the unavailable married man that could provide no future to me. I did this instead of allowing the light in of a most wonderful (available) man who was trying to woo me early last

I will hope that some day my friend will become available and we can try... but I will have to wait and see, be his friend and be patient. I care about him a lot but I will do what I should and focus on me and the recovery from all the other crap!
Love and hugs!
Hang in there my sweet friend. I am working through an excellent book right now...The Journey from Abandonment to Healing by Susan Anderson and it Is helping me see my reactions in a new way. Helping me understand how I sometimes react from old wounds. Check it out.
Stay strong,
UBM
