Thanks for sharing this part of your life. Posts like this allows us to get to know someone better and maybe understand them a bit better also.

..for the worthwhile and insightfull post. From the first time you "smacked" me and reading what posts you have made that I have stumbled across since then made you one of my fav personalities here. What you've shared in this thread confirms a certain impression I've had about "who you are and where your coming from". Though our specific circumstances may be different, the emotional impact and the "dealing" with it on both sides sounds all too familiar to me, and how you've moved forward with your life despite the past is much like my wife's.

Thanks for being here, and helping to keep us straight (smack)

Love

Maria

Fantastic open outpouring. Things like this have helped me feel better about myself. Just letting it all out relieves stress.

Love to both of you.

[Tamara Croft]

I haven't posted a thread in this section for so long and for a while now, I've thought about it. It was hard writing it, but I'm over the bad things, my mum and dad, although divorced, are still together and I've forgiven him for being such an ass

Kat, our youngest is only 12, I do believe however that her dad being a 'weirdo' as she says lol... doesn't actually bother her.

I didn't expect to get so many replies to be honest :blushing: but I want to thank each and everyone of you for taking the time to read my long post Some of the comments made me laugh, some brought tears......... anyway....... I'm gonna shut up now, things to do

Tamara, that was a touching story. I'm seriously moved to tears; well glassy anyway - I checked them before they could take out the mascara.

You are really, truly an amazing person - I'm so happy that things have worked out for you. You deserve it! Isn't it amazing how little "weirdness" means in the grand scheme of life?

Having to go through rough times, makes us appreciate good times all the more. Forgiving the injustices of those that have wronged us, helps us to be righteous and just.
Thank you for being Tamara, This wouldn't be the same place without you.

One note Tam, and I totally agree, it should take "wringing blood outta a stone" to get communication going! The gurlz should please keep that in mind....stopping communicating and being silent is one of the biggest problems in a relationship.
Just bear that in mind....keeping secrets? Not really a problem...but when one finds this silent taciturnity creeping into the relationship, it just puts a chill on everything.

[Wendy me]

Hey Tamara thanks for sharing your story with us ... just remember our past good bad or what ever is what gives us the strength to grow and face challenges in our Daly lives ...

[KarenSusan]

No wonder youre such a strong woman. I noticed this from your previous posts. Im sorry you had to endure such heart ache and abuse, but its what makes us stronger and better people in the long run. Keep your chin up! And thanks you for sharing your story

[Tamara Croft]

Ok, a little bit more well, sorta in the middle I guess.... I've always been an office worker, which got really boring I've done all kinds of jobs, from cleaning, to looking after the elderly. But enough was enough. In 2001, I went back to college, full time. I trained as a Beauty Therapist/Skin Care Analyst. It was hard work at first, but it was also so much fun.

Whilst training, I of course needed a guinea pig..... Tammy was it lol!!! She was waxed everywhere...... oh I did enjoy doing that!!! I did eyelash tinting on her, facials, massage, manicures, pedicures, makeup, but at the same time I was learning, I was also teaching her to do these for herself. So, I guess some good came out of it as Tam is now quite good at doing the majority of these things herself.

Unfortunetly, we were going through a rough patch and I couldn't cope with the 3rd year at college, so I pulled out. There's not much chance of learning anatomy and physiology and all the rest of it, whilst going through such a bad time Maybe one day I will go back and finish the course.

Right now though, I'm focusing on getting better, the back/hip/pelvis pain is ripe at the moment, damn British crap weather. I think that's enough rambling for now

Thanks for sharing, Tamara

[Marlena Dahlstrom]

Thanks so much for sharing Tamara (and of course for everything else you do). I admire the strength you've shown.

[bgirl]

This is what I look for on when I visit this site. Real people facing real problems and coming to terms with themselves on difficult issues. Accepting and living with this can be so difficult . We need to know there is some chance of making it all work. You made it plane to see that there was much work involved. And anything worth having is worth working for.
Thank you so much. Beth

[Shelly Preston]

Congratulations on coming through all those bad times

You story has touched a nerve in all of us I suspect
It has brought a tear to my eye while reading it

You are a remarkable lady who never ceases to amaze me and you are an inspiration to anyone struggling through hard times

Love and Best Wishes for the future
