New thoughts for 2013 (regarding herpes)

[JanetD]

Old thought - I'm alone because I have herpes.

 

New thought- Herpes may be the reason I'm not with just anyone but it certainly isn't the reason I'm not with "The One".

I love this JanetD! Your posts always seem to speak directly to me. I am taking up this new thought...the old one has been hard to ditch..or moreover it keeps coming up like a weed that I have to dig out. Somehow over the Christmas season its been hard to dig up and get rid of.

 

Thank lovely...this has given me a boost today :-) x

You are awesome Janet. :) I had a similar realization this week - The H Opportunity has actually made me slow down getting into relationships. Before herpes, I would jump into a new relationship with my heart and about two or three weeks into it my head would catch up....maybe. I made some really bad choices made by letting the relationship move forward too fast and not acknowledging all the red flags and huge stop signs along the way. I realized with Disclosure Guy from this week that he was exactly like every other guy I had been with, except this time, because of herpes, things needed to move slower and I had a chance to really examine things with my head and, for the first time, walked away. What an incredible gift! So, yes, herpes is not the reason I am not with someone but it is certainly the reason I am not with someone who is not good for me!
