Thanks for Putting Water into the Pool

Posted by verne on March 29, 2006, at 11:20:33

Not sure whether I'm blocked so this is mostly a test post, a peek out of the wreckage, the morning after. I'm so low in the saddle my horse keeps turning around to check whether I'm there.

I feel like I took a dive off the high board without first checking if there's any water in the pool. Thanks to everyone who filled the pool while I was on my way down - the landing is so much easier.

You've all been very supportive. I was really losing it last night. Happily, this morning, I'm only losing my breakfast.

Did you understand any of the reasons why i might object to the porn at my daughters eye level? or didn't you even read it.

There are great lifeguards at this pool.
I didn't enjoy having to look at my actions from the previous night and feeling so uneasy about them. Who had I upset? What had I said/done/not done? I am so much happier to be able to hold myself responsible for my safety.
No running.

I have no problem with you removing porn from around children. Sorry I created such a ruckus.

I'm not even a big fan of porn - especially anything X-rated. I've even been trying to give up my R-rated stuff, not out of prudishness or religion, but simply because I become further socially isolated. It may not be healthy for me but it's not anything I'm ashamed of.

I carry around so much internal shame already, I react strongly to even the hint of any additional shame. Nothing you did. The discussion went off on a tangent and I got defensive.

I'm truly sorry if I distressed you.

**Thanks, I'm sorry that you had a hard time (excuse the pun!!!)

**Good

**Thank goodness for grace hey!

> I'm truly sorry if I distressed you.

** i don't do conflict well it all gets mixed up in my head that EVERYTHING is my fault and I end up feeling responsible for everybodies hurt, and 'feeling' the hurt from both sides so yes it does end up really distressing for me. I end up screaming 'stop it!' but that is my problem and I guess I'll learn to distance myself oneday.
