I can't remember my great-grandparenst or my maternal grand-father because they passed away before I was born ...
My own grandchildren however, know and remember their great grandparents (my parents). There is 4 generations of us, starting from my parents down (including my sibblings, partners and their own kids) who still get together although not nearly often enough do we manage to ALL be under the same roof at the same time!! When we do there are 18 of us spread through 4 generations. In this case the positives far outweight the negatives ...
My feeling about it is that she was professionally and relationship (her slready esxisting one) wise reckless ...
If that IS a strong element of her character, not sure it makes for a stable relationship ... Hence my comment about exciting trouble ... but nevertheless trouble
Mention to him/her about the weight loss as well ...
Could simply be all the moving around and the stress linked to what you shared (+ what you didn't) about your ex being so difficult ... As we get older our bodies process stress and food differently ...
I have been having similar problem ... when first arrived in Spain I put on weight, then lost it when I had a tummy bug for a week ... I am currently hovering around 41 kg about 61/2 stone ... on the thin side of slim ... whatever I eat I can't seem to be able to put the weight back on ... I feel good in my skin though ... And have now stopped fretting about it, coz the more I fretted over it the less it seemed to help ...
Ok sommer ... it could be an allergic reaction to an insect bite ... have experienced same as you describe in the past from mosquito bites ...
Is the whole leg swollen? Check ALL of the area that is swollen for a sting or bite of some kind ...
I think you shouldn't wait till monday, which ever way ... if it's insect bite you need anti allergen like Pyriton oe natural equivalent if not you need to get it checked ... are their any casualty department near you?
Read the advice you were getting from everyone and didn't say anything because it all sounded like good advice already ...
I will share one thing I experienced with you ...
When the tears came ... it was so overwhelming that I started hyperventilating, couldn't breath from the strength of it ... Realised it was due to the fear of the pain so ...
I dealt with it by taking small shallow breaths and then slowly breating into the pain, embracing it in order to acknowledge it and validate it within myself ... I gave myself permission to feel the pain and in the middle of it all I was amazed to discover, I was in emotional pain but I was not depressed. The release and beginning of the healing process through the tears took a whole month of almost continuous crying. During the whole process I was aware that it was as much of a wonderful experience as the strength of the pain itself.
I think depression for me in the past had stemmed from not validating my own feelings to myself.
I am sharing this with you to help you understand that tears need not be feared, and however powerful the emotion and pain, the release of it is validating yourself as a person through validating and accepting your own emotions.
That ring and piece of paper was the symbol or a new beginning, life made for 2 - twice!!!
Now I know that the new beginnig will only result in a continuing togetheness if BOTH partners in the marriage act in a responsible, respectful, loving way towards one another. It's not about the intention it's about the emotional maturity to leave one another growth space and continuing to love the person as their growth turns them into someone may be different from the person they initially married but if the growth was done in a positive direction they should be even more worthy of one's love. Instead, I have heard soooooooooooo many times the words "he/she is not the person I married any more". Of course not!!! Why would someone want to be at 40 the same person they were at 20? And why would anyone expect you too?
In other words, it's no matter whether 2 particular people get married or not. That in itself will not be a factor into whether the relationship is successful or not. The only factor is whatthey perceive a relationship to be about.
RE: I'm unsure....
Here wishing you all the best ... may the outcome be one that gives you peace of mind and happiness
