A lot of the discussions are about relationships either in trouble or ended, most of the time not mutually. I do wonder if people try and hold on too long to negative relationships rather than face the unknown.

Am on holiday in Nerja at mo and we have met this amazingly interesting woman of 88! Ten years ago at the age of 78 she left an abusive husband. She said he would find her in UK so with only a suitcase she came out here and rented a flat intending to give her breathing space! She has never been back to the UK! She says it’s the best thing she ever did and wonders why she didn’t do something about it years ago! Seeing how many friends she has made here was inspirational. Not suggesting everyone uproots like that but it shows you are never too old to change your life for the better. X
