Three days.

Always three days. It happened again. For the eleventh time now. "You don't hug right". I'm going to go insane. Three days and she's gone. No matter who, no matter how, just three days. ######. Three days.

I started off like that then moved onto heavy cotton shirts, then to lighter ones then to rolling up the sleeves... There's much greater control over how smart or casual it looks too, than with jumpers.

This may seem inappropriate, but as someone who only had bad friends if any, I do feel it's something one can eventually come to terms with, so you needn't feel too bad about them forever . I hope that's a comforting thought.

Back when I was having trouble, I found that when I got angry, going for a walk (alone) really helped, for a number of reasons. Still does, in fact. I don't know if it'd work for everyone, but it might be worth a try if there's a safe circular route, that he can get accustomed to you can put him on.

I'm not sure I have anything of use to contribute, but I'll stay for the time being.

I just signed up to say that this thread made me look at my mother in a new light. oxgirl, soraya, thanks.
