Very happy to have you back Monica. Sorry the trip wasn’t quite what you hoped for. Next time you will hopefully bring your own company. You are taking the good and leaving the rest behind. I don’t think there is anything wrong with being best friends with an ex or really good friends. Though I think it can be harder when one still hopes there would be more even if they don’t expect it. A difficult rather tormenting spot to be in I would think. Sorry don’t have an answer for that one. And like most things that really involve emotions there is no simple answer.
You are working towards your one year of no gambling! That wasn’t easy but you are doing it. If you still don’t quite feel like your reward trip did the job go looking for something with special meaning as your reward. I bought a beautiful scarf covered in monarch butterflies. It was so bright and gorgeous. And a reminder every time I wore it that I am deserving of special things. Have a good day lovely Monica.
