Just want to echo Chuffs words Geoff. Ive been here from beginning to present of your little journey and even from your first post when you were obviously still in so much pain, you exuded a personality type and good guy attitude that just told most of us straight away that you would be fine. In fact although no doubt still a sad experience I'm sure you will agree that what it has done for you as far as growing as a person goes has been invaluable. I know that feeling myself.

And the best part is that your still here helping people with great advice and sympathetic words that most others can't offer.

Well done Geoff. I bet you had enough of us brown noses for one day so ill get back to trying to help those that need it. Cause you sure don't anymore.

Well done mate! Wish I was at your stage now... : (

Yeah Geoff is amazing! What a sweet guy.
This thread is amazing all right when you read back on it.

You have been an inspriation Geoff, it's great to see how far you've come and how much you have helped others heal, a sign of a wonderful person. X

Thank you all for your kind words. AMHD was part and parcel of my progress and I thank it and it's members for that. Funny, but I think that it partly helped me open my mind again.

+ I never banged on so much in years.

I didn't know we were helping you do that to... Wait I think bang means something different in the UK then it does in the US! :D

What does banging on mean in the us then or does it depend which state you live in?

I sense déjà vu.

I swear I had this conversation before with someone.

Bang means to have sex... Bang another girl... Banged her from the back... Catch my drift?

I suppose if I said I was banging more than I had ever in years, the brits might interpret that in a naughty brit way, but banging on is a bit more specific I suppose.

I know that... :p

But Banging on does not mean that.

Banging on means well, banging on basically.

Like waffling on... Like when someone is talking non stop to themselves and think you are listening and then you (not you personally) rudely say "what are you banging on about?"

But you would not say "what are you banging?" because that would not make sense and would also be an intrusion of their privacy.

Besides, I suppose it should be if used in those terms, "who are you banging?" not what..

See, this is banging on.

But Chuff said that he thinks banging means something different in the states whether it be banging or to bang or banging on.

What am I banging on about :confused:

If you were banging rosie o'donnel what and not who would be an appropriate question.

In the UK would you even know who that guy is?

Sounds like a lot of banging on about banging.

Your case is very characteristic. Something similar happent to me too. Your woman is imature and most importanly UNSTABLE. Mabey you should see the signs before and break up with her earlier!
Women are supposed to be sensitive and emotional but in the end many times they are very cruel! Many of them treat men like rubish, don't care about their feelings and play with them! Then they come back feeling sorry and apologizing, but what for; the damage is done. They heart you so much. Are they worth your sympathy, so that to heart you again later??

Thanks for the reply on this Andreas_111

Yeah.. You are right, I did learn a lot from this one as I keep saying LOL. The only way is up and forward after something like that and I hope the other newbies on here remember that.

It is only oneself that can prevent oneself from making positive progress.

I learned that after all this, I had more control on the situation than I first thought. Talking about the actions I took to help me heal after the breakup.

That is so key - Unstable and immature. Without the experience though would we have learnt? No. We have to see it as a blessing in disguise, a chance to grow as a person.

Geoff,

I don't know how the heck I missed this thread. But so glad I spotted it eventually. I can not even begin to tell you how happy you make my heart for being the person you are. I am not sure why, but tears with a smile, just stream down my face. I have no idea why, and probably should keep it to myself. But you as a person, and all of your healing, make me so happy. You give me faith in people once again.

I am struggling so much trying to find the words that will capture what I am feeling and wish to express.

You are just a precious human being. Oh, and the lucky one that finds her way into your heart, is just that, one lucky young lady. She'll appear when the time is right.

(…………………………………………………….) Space for the words that I just can't seem to find.

My very best to you,
Allheart


p.s. I finally did get those brownies and they were awesome! They were from you... right? :eek:

Wow, this thread keeps popping up to haunt me time and time again, in a nice way.. LOL

Thank you Allheart for your kind words, I did not realise you missed the thread. It did float into the background after a while obviously because of the progress I was making.

That's really nice of you to say all those things Allheart. :)

Oh.. Yes, the brownies that Val gave me the recipe for. They were in a bottle. The wind must have changed direction a few times, that's why they took so long. :)

Mmm brownies sounds good! Anywhere there is chocolate and here I am!
