Thank you Maz, certainly a weight off my mind and I can stop pretending now xx
Bet that's a weight of your mind, at least you can now share your fears and celebrate when things go right, pleased for you x
Bugger the support, more importantly did he bring you a pressie back from his holidays?get your priorities right Skatie lol x
Haha.....yes he did lol xxx. Thanks skis for making me laugh....you never failxx
I hope it's something better than a bottle of retsina,dreadful stuff and nothing less than some of the finest Ouzo will do. xx
Haha....no a compact mirror that can charge my phone and a fridge magnet lol. Xx. He doesn't do romance, but I wouldn't change him, plus I had spent 3 weeks in Greece with him, he just stayed on a week longer xx
Well having spent 3 weeks languishing in Greece and regardless of the outcome of your romantic relationship i know withdraw further support as it's obviously not required,yours enviously.........Ski's and Sruff's xx
Great news and so pleased that he is supporting you that will take a lot of your mind
Why is it so difficult to Tell People Stuff? You were very courageous indeed. I’m so happy to know your boyfriend took it well and is being supportive 💐 But I agree with Skis, we need to know if he brought you back a present 🎁 😋
That's great news Skatergirl1 and I hope you better just by being honest about your health. 💞
Aw you must feel better in your mind now which all goes to help the breathing 💕 X
What can I say than
Yay! ! ! 🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶 Well done you! Isn't that a weight of your shoulders? I think we regret much more withholding the things we should say rather than lies we tell. So happy for you. xx ❤
Oh my goodness Caspian a, I wasn't expecting to hear from you!!! I hope you are recovering well, don't over do anything and I look forward to hearing more from you as you get better. You have made my day as you have been on my mind a lot xXxX. And yes I am so relieved to be able to speak my truth x
Wow
I wasn’t expecting to see you for ages!
How wonderful Cas.
I do hope you are recovering well, and are getting amazing treatment to help to put you back on the path to a fabulous life, which you so rightly deserve.
Well done on being so courageous and such an example to us all.
Fondest wishes.😍
Baby steps now for a little while😉
That’s good news and well done for coming clean. If he’s one of the good guys he’ll stick around for the long haul . Sounds like he is.

Thank you xx
Keeping such a secret would have been a mental torment to you eventually. I am pleased that telling him the truth has worked out for both of you. It might be an idea to direct him to this site before he starts to use Dr. Google and gets bad information and horror stories.
That must be a tremendous weight off your mind Skatergirl and wonderful that you boyfriend is supportive. Long may that continue. 😊
That must be a relief, Skatergirl1 It's always easier if your partner knows -- and especially if he understands.
