A very positive way to look at life, Sweet. And you are correct, how you see yourself does project to those around you. Bonnie

Happy Birthday Caroline! I am approaching 60, 2 more years. I haven't really accomplished anything that is noteworthy to the world but I do have two beautiful children that depended on me and my wife while they were growing up. My wife and I, together raised them well. I am now living on my own and have closed the book on the expected future of being a grandparent along with my wife. I don't know what my role will be now. But the main thing is that I was there for them when it was most important. You have children and I am sure they are your joy. Bonnie

Very good Amie! A good way to deal with these situations even though it does hurt some it is best to get past it as quickly as you can and move on. Bonnie

That has happened to me too in both situations. Even when I was much younger and in male appearance hitchhiking. Men would pick me up and within a short time I could tell that they wanted to have sex with me. They of course didn't know my sexuality and would be hesitant about asking. Most finally did but I didn't help them get there. And those who were afraid to just dropped me off and left never knowing. When I got much older and I could tell a guy was having trouble approaching and saying anything I would help out and make eye contact and smile and eventually say hi if he got close enough. It also depends on what you would want to do if he did say something. If the answer is nothing, then no point in helping him out. If the answer is to go further then you say something if he is too shy to. Bonnie

Hi Tiffany! I don't have much time before I go to bed so all I can say for now is that there is never a right time or good time to do what you need to do. There will always be events coming up and life moves on around you. Your job situation seems to be a big issue right now. Take care of that as a priority. Keep your doctor's appointment of course and then see what's next to do. Bonnie
