Expressing yourself

My ex had a friend/business associate who encouraged him to start his own business. At that time I was being promoted at a company that we had all worked at at one time. His business comflicted with what I was doing so it make things impossible for me at work and I had to quit. This friend (a woman) also treated me like a second class citizen once I was part of the business even though my work was preferred to hers. I was desperate last week and I called her and asked her for some work. I really had to swallow my pride to do this but I have to feed my kids. She told me to call her Monday. Well, it was Monday that my ex found out I had surrendered his vehicle because he wasn't paying me. The kids and I have struggled for months barely making it thanks to his actions. When I called her MOnday, she was rather rude. I called last night to confront her but she wasn't home so I left her a message. I was not rude, did not curse but I let her know that if it had not been for her I wouldn't have been in this situation to begin with. I would have been in the job that I loved and money would not have been a problem. I also told her that she didn't have to worry; I would never call her again. I felt better afterwards. It was off my chest.

What you repress will become stress.... so EXPRESS IT!.... and when you can do it with pride, dignity and respect... you feel even better!
I'm glad that you were able to do that and I hope that things work out for the best.
