On being a doormat

[Candid]

I love it!

Arse makes me laugh, too. Very often when my H says something, I let a couple of seconds pass then say "arse" without cracking a smile.

that was brilliant!!!  and i think it belongs right where it ended up.

it sounds like your gut was right on about not wanting to go.  i think i'd re-evaluate that 'friend' - it sounds like a complete set-up.  i don't wonder you feel betrayed.   what a horrible thing to want to do to someone!  i'm so glad you'd decided not to go.

and, congrats to you, too, clarity, for your own cancellation.  dang, we are getting stronger around here, aren't we!  hugs all around!
