Witchie I am learning to say whats on my mind.. after years of being a pushover and simply letting folks walk all over me. I am starting to say whats on my mind. I have had mixed reactions.. Mostly my honesty has just made the other person defensive and they start name calling. It makes you want to go back in your shell and not want to express your feelings openly any more.

Dove me love, IF they are THAT immature to accept a little bit of feedback from you then they are not worth your time!
I grew in a 'shell' like witchie, jfreak and you (in no part thanks to growing up overseas) and it took a special lady during high school to break me shell to nothingness. Thou like Jfreak (still have a touch of shyness every now and then) and Witchie, I still can be 'shocked' and embarrassed by certain types of attention!
So, express your feelings openly and try to find someone that isnt immature that they cant accept any feedback on what they are doing wrong and you will have found that special person Dove!

I still am somewhat of a pushover, would be why my ex roommate calls me carpet. I have to get to a certain point before I really let loose. It took me a long time to get to a point where I stood up for myself instead of just putting my tail between my legs and going the other way. The turning point for me was after hubby #2 left. I was never going to let another person put me though the hell he did. I was weak and when he threatened to hurt my very much younger bother and sister or hurt me if I tried to leave, I believed it. At that point I know now I should have gone to the cops or even family, but I was stupid and scared. When he left and I really thought about things, I decided I couldn't live that way and started to grow as I call it.
I am never mean or hurtful when I speak my mind, but as Outlaw said, some people just can't handle it. If they resort to name calling, it is a whole lot better you saw that side of them now and before you really became attached. You are too good of a person to have to put up with that. Someday someone is going to realize what a real treasure you are.

Thank you Witchie and Outlaw .. I think I cried a river in the last 48 hours. After coming home from a fun evening out last night I checked my email. I received a email from my ex BFs current GF( the two of us communicate now and then ) This was the news I received.
Subject: hello
Date: Jan 23, 2007 10:55 PM
Hi XXXX,
Happy New Year to you ! We are doing great. We
just celebrated our two year anniversary a few weeks
ago and I am engaged. He wants to start a family and
we will next year. I never called you because he said
to never call you, and not to send a picture of
myself.
So I promised him, I would not, Take care of yourself
and I hope you find happiness. He would be very upset
if he knew that you e-mailed me and that I responded
but I feel you would feel better so I wrote back to
you.
Grace[/B]
Yes I knew it was their two year anniversary, it was the two year anniversary of my breakup, he left me for her. I could kick myself for writing to her a few weeks ago. He was on my mind that day, I was going to call him but out of respect for her , I wrote to her instead. I had come to terms about the loss of what we once had , but reading that they were now engaged felt like a knife in my heart. Its been a hell of a weekend so far. 
Look at me sobbing in a Valentines Party thread... maybe my luck will improve next weekend.

Dove, I can't blame you for being upset. Granted you may have known it was over for you two, but it was almost like she was rubbing your face in it. I would be doing the same thing and crying my eyes out!! Why is it, the ones we know we can't have, that have hurt us the most, are the ones we still think of and wonder how they are?

other then the room, the only other thing is your drinks. The parties themselves are a lot of fun. Tons of people, music and basically just a good time.
