Title: Some Friends Do Return
Post by: CarolC Oz Girl on March 06, 2006, 12:52:23 PM
Hi girls

Yesterday I recieved a letter from the wife of one of my former friends.

I have not spoken to this woman since commimg out and I must admit I was expecting further rejection for being true to myself.

Well what a shock, news does travel fast, both her and her husband were both disgusted at the way my ex wife has been treating me and although her husband finds it difficult to understand my choice, she indicated to me that they want our friendship to continue.

I had a good think about it last night and will ring Karen today to say that I would love that.

So I am feeling a little less hurt and it has taught me that you cannot stop believeing for the best in people to show.

Love Caroline

This news pleases me to death, Caroline, and it brings me hope that, even if I'm abandoned at first, the best of my friends will return.  :)

Hello Caroline and Helen

As you each move forward with this you will always find those who reject and those who will continue to be your friend.  True friends will stay by your side the others were not really friends but merely acquaintances, and will pass as ships in the night.

I'm so happy that you were able to keep a friend.  Friends are something you want to hold onto dearly, especially during transition, which will be one of the hardest times in your life.
