Mark makes a good point about Pac having started a Meetup. Maybe you could attend one? I think Mark does and I attend several. I'm looking forward to a Togaparty Meetup this Saturday and next week my postive thinker and doer club.

I am so happy to hear that you called him and cleared the air. Isn't it great how when you state your feelings without blame but ownership instead how it brings the other closer to you and opens up a better understanding? I am glad for you and can practically feel your relief. Like I said- I have so been there and have learned, and my guy has responded in kind when I was honest with him, like you were with your guy last night.


This is great that you are getting out there nd doing the meet ups. I personally can attest to how socializing outside of the relationship can enhance not only yourself but your relationship. I used to feel like I had to focus all my energy on the two of
