    And for you doubters. That is me with my beloved Sofie.


    1. Per Danger Boy, yes that is a cute picture. Cute little doggie. :)
    2. You yourself are quite the charming young lady, in both your picture
    and your posts.
    (this cleaned up version was provided by lessons taught by MrNightly :) )
    3. If that Sofie were a cat, well.......


    .....okay, lemme make a substitution on #3.

    3. Being single isn't so bad. The fear of losing what you have, no matter how
    bad it is, may be controlling your decision. That's not crazy, that's what
    they call being human. Getting up to look behind the curtain into the
    unknown takes some courage, but you'll do it.
    Also, sometimes people hate to "not finish what they start". You entered
    your relationship, with some idea(s) as to where you would like it to lead.
    It isn't heading there, apparently. You, not being a lazy slackjaw, have
    taken up the challenge to make it work. I'd say you've more than supplied
    enough effort. Nothing wrong with stepping back and saying, "Aw, crap !
    That didn't work out like I thought and hoped it would." Doesn't mean
    you're a loser, doesn't mean you're crazy, what it means is: Welcome to
    the human race. You tried, gave it your best shot, and didn't come in
    first.

    Final piece of million dollar advice (I'm declaring this on my taxes once I file):
    Everybody has choices to make in life, including your roommate.
    If it is your choice to leave, she has the choice to make of accepting your choice (with regrets, of course) or not accepting it and taking longer to become the person she needs to/wants to become.

    Your choice to make, make it ,and truly wish the other person well in the choices she has to make.

    Wow, this thread changed a bit over the last time I looked at it...

    Darla, I can't tell you what to do, matters of the heart are the toughest to deal with, but you have to put yourself ahead of anything financial. Does your cop shop have professional (hopefully external) counseling available?

    I wish you the best; just please remember that you have to take care of you first. Everything else doesn't matter - 'cept taking care o' the HT gear! ;););)

    Cute pic of you and your doggie!

    Guys. I am so messed up with this situation....AND I am thoroughly confused. I am sitting here in my beautiful back yard by the pool with my dogs and really wondering if I should give this another shot.....Also...I have a slight confession to make which may put a different spin on things and I hope that you guys don't get PO'd at me but in the interest of keeping things simple on this board and avoiding any hate (like I have seen some here receive)I said that the **** was a he when it's really...well not. It's a chick.


    Don't go away folks! Stay tuned for another exciting episode of "As the Wingnut Turns" :eek:

    I missed it too. The ability to delete is a good thing, though. Especially for people like me who occasionally let their fingers get ahead of their brain..

    Anyway, best of luck, Darla! I don't have any advice, but I know you'll get things worked out.

    Darla, I have to ask, have you always lived in the south, if so, do you have a TWIN sister that lives in Virginia. I'd be willing to put my paycheck on it that I found your twin in the Fredericksburg area. I used to hang out with some guys a few years back and one of them dated a girl that looks identical to you. Just curious.
