[QUOTE="Childofmine, post: 620799, member: 17542"] Thank you all so much for helping me see that this is another natural step in the process and essential for progress in my own growth and recovery. difficult child FB messaged me yesterday asking that we meet instead of talk by phone since he doesn't have a phone and the shelter is closed today. I answered and said ok. Then I started feeling sick in my stomach. An hour later I messaged back and said I have changed my mind and we can still talk by phone if you can get to a phone. He asked why and I said I'm not ready to see you yet. I felt bad saying that but I stayed with it. Because my feelings about not seeing him are stronger right now, today, than my feeling bad about telling him that. Wow---that is real progress! Just writing that, I saw that. So he may call and he may not. I am a bit anxious as I don't know what to say to him. I am planning to talk about my life and ask no questions. More later! Thank you so much. [/QUOTE]
