Phase One Complete!

As in... getting to Portland and having a place to sleep, etc. whilst I look fo gainful employment, etc. Phase One, I think, was just about the easiest part of the whole thing

Womanizers = run! One of the lessons I've learned in the last year or so.

Ya, I know, but in the interest of not sounding like a freak who seeks out men "to fix" he was my friend who talked about cuddling with me, etc. gooey nice things, with whom I fell in love. So... I don't know... I didn't mean to get involved with a guy who'd hurt me, I guess is what I'm saying... it just sort of happened. :(

There was no judgment in my comment - I did the same thing. Thing is, it got harder and harder (and more painful) to extract myself because I kept hoping it would "get better" (AKA I'd stop caring about him in that way or he would suddenly be able to love me).

He was very manipulative in general, though, so perhaps your friend is a lot less evil.

I didn't read judgement in what you said at all. And I definitely know what you mean about the wishful thinking. I keep wanting him to figure it out but I don't think he's going to and I'm certainly done holding my breath.
