    i think it all comes down to what you value. his being open with you isn’t a red flag unless him not wanting to sleep with you is an absolute deal breaker. it sounds to me as if he’s being honest with you about who he is but because you value sleeping together it makes you feel unwanted… and it shouldn’t.

    Danaken… the night I wrote this intro, I was extremely sad. Now… I feel much better. Some days I am up and some I am down. I definitely can relate to all that you said. I, too, sometimes wish it would be all over. But today, I feel a strength inside that I can’t place or identify the source of. Some days, like today, I just know that no matter what, I’m going to be okay and that I should be easy on myself. The thing about reaching rock bottom physically and spiritually is that I have nowhere to go but up from here on out… and the awareness I have now won’t allow me to slip to far back into past behaviors. Maybe we can talk privately… I would love to converse. Maybe there is something to be shared. Stay strong. Our lives and stories are not in vain.

    Anita… I’m kinda at odds about working out while dealing with this. While exercise definitely boosts the immune system, I also read that the cortisol our bodies create during exercise raises our blood sugar levels. In theory, this would feed the candida in my blood and cause a flare up. I will definitely try it, though. I’m going to fight this until my body finds balance. Thanks for your kind words. I appreciate you.
