(161 posts)I get it. Going through it myself right now. Not the first time. Most likely not he last. My lifestyle brings me into contact with many, many addicts, rape victims, survivors of beatings and a shit load of fucked up vets from recent wars/campaigns as well my brothers from vietnam. Shit my father served in korea. He was 95 in september and still drives.
But I digress...
As someone who cycles through this fucking shit myself, who also has a very difficult time expressing it to those who are loved the most, the significant few who gain trust through years of trite suedo-trust- testing yet still remain, is sometimes times the hardest. Got fucked over by one of 20 years just last monday. Boo f'ing hoo...
Your BFF is a doghammed hero. So are you.
Love your LIFE!
