    I'm very sorry to hear about you and Babs, but you both seem to be handling it as well as can be expected. Focus upon the good times, and you'll never feel sad.< />< />God, I sound like a Hallmark card.

    AD, I'd like to join the others in saying "sorry it didn't work out"....< />< />I don't know if I should say "I hope everything works out" or "maybe it's for the best; good luck in the future"....< />< />I guess I'll say this: I hope things work out in whatever will be the best way for you and Babs

    What a great quote. :)< />< />I hate it when life goes and messes with the rest of life. Hopefully things will work out for the best in the end... whatever that may be.< />< />:)

    It's a rough road, but at least you still have the friendship. It's that much harder when your best friend decides she no longer wants to talk to you...

    Hey AD,< />< />I'm sorry things didn't work out for you. Unfortunately there are some great people in this world that just aren't good for us. It is nobody's fault, it is just the way it is. Although you and her were not a match, I am certain you learned a lot from the experience, and can move forward with hope and courage.< />< />One thing I will caution you against is remaining too emotionally attached. Being friends is fine, but being too close and emotionally dependent on each other will likely close the door to any future relationships. Not only will you not feel like dating others, or start comparing others to her, you may feel in a way that you are not emotionally available to another person while you are still tied to your ex. Be wary of that.< />< />All the best to you. We all care about you and hope you are doing well, as well as can be expected given the sad circumstances.< />< />Hugs to you.< />< />-Slinky

    I hestitated to comment on an obviously painful and personal time. < />< />I am so sorry for the pain and frustration you both feel. < />< />As with most things in life, timing is everything. And although it seems pretty lame right now, there is a reason and you will look back on this and understand the what, when, where and why of it all.< />< />I now return to my lurking and keeping my two cents to myself.

    I'm hoping for the very best outcome for both of you. That's a fantastic quote, and those are great words to live by in times of despair or jubliation.

    out of it once myself.< />< />Let me add my condolences over the change in your relationship as well. I guess all these internet romances can't all work out happily for everyone. Sorry about yours, but it does sound like you're both being adults about it, which is a lot more than you can say for 50+% of relationships these days.

    There's a good (if very long) quote about belief from Neil Gaiman's American Gods, too, that I'll post when I get a chance to sit down and type it out. It's one of the best quotes about belief that I've ever come across, and also hands down the longest uncuttable gotta put it all down quote ever.

    They are great words to live by even if many people chose to turn their back on them, doesn't make the words less valuable or untrue.

    Babs is a woman with a mean streak a hundred miles wide. You didn't lose anything, even if it feels that way right now. You saved yourself from a very unhappy relationship with someone who doesn't practice what she preaches so sanctimoniously.
