Send *123 a private message | | | *123's profile:I like to help people as much as I can - my heart is in the right place even if it has taken a couple of bruises and hard knocks over the past 3 years!! I lost a child in a v tragic way and its taken me upto a year to feel a tiny bit better. If I can make anyone on this website feel better about themselves or try to give some sound advice it would bring great joy to me.
I believe in Humanity. I believe that we must always help each other in order to better ourselves..but that its up to us at the end of the day to want to help ourselves, we must help ourselves first in order to grow, we must pick ourselves up and dust ourselves down when things get tough.. one of life's hardest lessons.. Thanks! B

A. 8 June 2011: The psychologists would call this projection. He is projecting his own guilt for misbehaving onto you. You didn't push him away. He chose to go away from you instead of fixing what you already had. So he decided to make himself feel better for being ... (read in full...)
