[QUOTE="MaggieDawn70, post: 457012, member: 12702"] Thanks for all the welcomes. Someone mentioned moving on without guilt and I still struggle with that a bit. Sometimes I will get to feeling bad about the situation and start to feel guilty, even if just a little. All it takes is to be reminded of something that's happened, the guilt is gone. It's a bit of a tug-of-war sometimes. I've really had to come to rely on myself because I don't have close friends anymore. The situation just never lent its hand to maintaining my now old friendships. I have a lot of acquaintances but it's easier to not let it get too far. Eventually I'd have to explain daughter and I don't do that anymore, without fail. There's been too many assumptions, criticisms, and awkward conversations that I will not go there anymore. I never am a very good friend anyway, socially speaking. Many people I know want to go out all the time and I'm not into that either, too introverted. Most people end up thinking I'm not into them. Between my own personality and daughter and her antics, doesn't bode well for social supports. Does make a person pretty self-reliant, if nothing else. [/QUOTE]
