dte, I remember you from years ago and often wondered where you were? I think remember a lot of your story and you can have a hug anytime.

Sending a belated hug downtoearth. I think you’re not alone in making a remark which to you is loaded with import but to others appears quite casual. (I’ve been there, done that.) Sometimes we need to have the confidence to be more assertive, to ask specifically for what we need from fellow posters. I’m so glad you did it and received such a positive response.

How lovely to hear that downtoearth this place is very uplifting 🙂 (mostly).

Welcome back to posting, downtoearth! Chatty and friendly posters are what we need to cheer us all up, IMO!

Hi downtoearth I missed your thread asking for a hug so here's a belated one 🤗

I'm glad it helped. GN at its best!

That after being on GN for many years,I read and lurked,after being quite a chatty poster.
Life got in the way,a long relationship break down due to him cheating led to a loss of confidence and just feeling totally invisible and unlovable.
I had lost heart with GN also,any slight remarks I made seemed overlooked even though it has been a lifeline to me,as many familiar names are like knowing a real lufe friend.
A few days ago I posted and asked for hugs and was blown away by the response,I genuinely feel very warm inside because if this,and it has given me confidence to start a second thread and starting to post again on others threads, so thankyou all your kindness has really helped.
