Hi my Pixies friends,

I have been quiet lately having so much stuff to deal with.

The woman who I was waiting for for nearly 3 years dumped me because shr thought I was having affairs with all and sundry due to long campaign from some hacker. Now she is marrying someone else.

Tough to take but my friends have been wonderful.

My Mother is dying of lung cancer. It is less than a year since I lost my dad. it is a blessing we dont have 3 parents, I couldnt take it 3 years in a row. My brothers and Sister are all wonderful and we have always been a pretty tight group but now we are each others support group.

I have finally got a job. The one I was going for last year. It was delayed till now. Mum gave me her car with the blessing of my siblings and that will make a huge difference. I have mums dog Holly a golden Lab.

Whilst doing a looking for work course I met a lovely young woman named Laura. Despite the big age difference I asked her out and on Wednesday we are going on a date. We have both spoken and neither is looking for a life partnership with each other but there is some attraction there that may break my self imposed 3 year celibacy.

I met a lady in Pixies chat and we have become great friends. She has supported me and when I went off line for a time due to an emergency with mum, actually rang to find out if i was ok.
We are both attracted to each other and are making plans to meet later in the year and see if something can happen between us face to face. She encouraged me to go out with Laura whilst she was not with me.

She is one in a million and thinks a lot like me and is open honest and sexual.

So though there is some sadness in my life, the agony of the last 3 years is over and there seems to be some sunny periods ahead.

I am allowed the freedom to have friends, contribute to pixies and be myself because I have found someone who is trusting and understanding.

Through Pixies I may well have turned my life around

Glad to hear things are looking a bit better for you GG. Been thinking of you. Just whistle when you need prayers or good thoughts. That's what friends are for.

Glad to see you happy GG!!!!!

Sometimes it takes a long time to learn that if someone wants you to be different, in order for them to love you, then it's not you they love!

GG- You’ve been a thought that bubbles to the surface for me every once in a while. As all of the process of life goes on, I can share the relief of knowing that you’ve turned a corner for a bit. And you are right that Pixies can not only give us an immediate open retreat, but give us thoughts from real people to take with us.

Just keep laughing and scratching.

Oh GG! I am so happy to hear things are better for you. On the other hand I am so sorry to learn of you mother's illness. With the friends and family surrounding you as they are I know you'll be ok! And, as you said, Pixies is a salvation as well! Keep your chin up sweety! *hugs*

Grumble:

So sorry to read the news of your mum ~ I'm sure you and your sister & brothers will look after her well.

As for the rest - well, it's about bloody time! I read your story a few times, and I am still amazed at your fortitude through such a horrible time! Good on ya mate!!

Hope all goes well, with the job and everything else... sending you "good thinks"!

Take care

DM
