    • Dear Brittany,

       

      I have a POV that may not be exactly what you want to hear, but may be helpful to you in the long run.  In my experience, of 25 years of marriage, partners, whether they are disabled or not, need to "lean on each other," while each stands alone with the strength of his or herself.  Looking for someone to lean on can be a way that will end in your never finding the ability to be your own person.

       

      In order to have a successful relationship, in my experience and in watching marriages and relationships fail or succeed, those who make it are those who are their own person first, and then find another with whom they can meld and build a new union.  Right now, you are speaking and feeling from the pain of that awful infidelity and betrayal, but looking for support from another is probably not the right way to find real happiness.

       

      It is my hope that you can build confidence and security with the person you are, and joy in your relationship with your son.  This is a hard thing to do, certainly.  Education, time with people who are 'just friends,' finding out what you are about on your own can all play a role.  Even meditation can help.  At that point, it seems to me, you will be ready to enter into a lasting relationship with another person while retaining the individuality that you have worked to develop.

       

      This is, of course, just my opinion, and you may find happiness and strength with another and grow together.  But I thought I would share these thoughts so that you might have another perspective.

       

      My very best wishes to you, and warmest regards.  Bonnie

    • Brittany,

      I read your story, and I truly feel for you. There is something about GUYS that just seems SO CRAZY. They can be surrounded by beauty (and beauty is YOU), they not only don't welcome and appreciate it...they look for OTHER BEAUTY. GOD, WHAT IS WRONG WITH THEM? This, Brittany, is coming from a sufferer of Severe Traumatic Brain Injury 20 months ago. AND.......I am a man too!!!! I LOVE BEAUTY TOO........but I RESPECT IT......AND WELCOME IT WITH HUGS AND SOUL-SHARING!

      If ya want any further advice or help, Email me at      jimmyandjazzy@yahoo.com      We can share Life Experiences and stories.....

      Thanks.....
