Re: What do you think of the term "carer"?
Hi JUst47
Anyone who loves to read my posts and thinks I am a clever man, has my heart. Will you marry me?
But seriously, I have had many, many Baddy relationships, as you call them, in my life too.. probably mostly my fault... Wish I could offer some advice, but I can't. By now, at 65, you'd think I would know the answer wouldn't you? Hows this: Don't get twisted like me.
I note that I am called a Senior Constributor now. Hmmm?? Perhaps because I am an old fart.
I have lotsa pain in my body, my head and my heart.
I get the feeling you are lonely.
Gray

Re: What do you think of the term "carer"?
Sorry you've had such a tough experience with the government - I haven't been in that position but I can see all the politics involved.
I don't really see myself as a "carer" just as a partner but there is a lot more caring than most relationships.
@justanother47yrold - I know what you mean about positive reinforcement, especially when you don't get much at home. It makes such a difference. We need lots of it and to believe it when we get it. Hope you are the recipient of some today.

Re: What do you think of the term "carer"?
I hold your marriage proposal in my heart with bells and white bows and imagining what I could say back without being too forthright and nasty but"...""..........sorry, it won't work between us. I will only say yes when the billboard in America proposes to me in a baseball match .........lololololol
not really!!!
Baddy relationships......hmmmmmmm............
I wonder if you are being too harsh on yourself?
how do you forgive yourself?
your last comment is duly noted but I'm a little too overwhelmed with joy in my heart that you wrote that.

Hi again J47
I note the reply from #Mrs Who about positive reinforcement and, well, I asked for your hand in marriage..
It doesn't get any more postive than that.
#Mrs Who... And she knocked me back.. I am devistated... No good asking you, you're already married.

Re: What do you think of the term "carer"?
You write........
'at ths point in time I am in two minds as whether
I will persist.......
having said that, I will probably push on
you never know........"
It's funny and cool how you write.
I have decided to answer you with the last sentence that you wrote me yesterday because while i
Was doing stuff in the car, I thought about the last sentence for .5 minutes. then ........
Had other stuff happening so did that.
I think I wanted to write that for many years, I swallowed up my loneliness of that child stuff by working very hard, working very hard being a loveable mother and therapy. but it didn't break the 'deep soul ness loneliness. it's somethng that I'm addressing now. I thought I would fill my days wth more soulless work but
I can't.
I'm now making necklaces and handsewn bags hoping to sell them. Also, many years of being a hard working good mother but now, I have a home with Arlo, my dog and me. It's very difficult to think about yourself first.
Gray. How do you forgive yourself?? "...............
I have an idea.

Re: What do you think of the term "carer"?
When I was a wife and mother of two young children, I was "Home Duties".
When I was a divorced single mother I was "abusing the system".
When my son was diagnosed with Bipolar I was a "Carer".
Yet as far as I can see my role has been the same all along.
