  • Yeah its just some of the people that used to read my diary seem to have gone a bit AWOL, think people are getting a bit bored of the non money stuff, not that i blame anyone so thought i might give it a rest here, on my diary at least!

  • hiya, I'm a proper lurker but thought I'd send you a wee message. Don't feel the need to leave because you are 'boring' people or aren't talking about money saving. You are going through a really hard time at the minute so its understandable that money saving is kind of taking a back seat-you need to spend time focusing on yourself, and getting yourself back into a positive frame of mind(easier said than done, I know!) You have such a good attitude to things at the minute, I really doubt I could be so strong in your situation, so don't lose sight of how far you've come, because you've done fantastically. You are allowed to feel down, and have bad days, and come on here and vent, or ponder, or whatever, because its your diary, and the people who read it are more than happy to listen to you, no matter what mood you're feeling in.

    Obviously if you think its better for yourself to take time off from your thread, then by all means do so, but don't leave because you think people don't want to read what you have to say, because we do!

    As for the clothing situation-i wear hoodies all the time! I also have a stack of 'cute' t-shirts. Sometimes at work I feel a bit out of place because some of the girls are pretty glamorous and obviously put a lot of effort into accessorising and makeup etc, but its just not me-i wear makeup and my clothes are nice-just not as dressy as other people. I have started introducing some slightly dressier items into my wardrobe-some nice cardigans and dressier tops etc, but it takes time to change these things if you're not used to it I think. Don't worry about people thinking you dress too young-if you're happy with your clothes then thats great :-)

    Sorry,went on a major ramble there, but you seem quite down and just wanted you to know that people on here do care, even if they don't necessarily post about it :-)

    Evening chick how are you?

    Taking a break is totally you're decision, if you feel it will help you. I wouldn't worry too much about the non money part, my diary hasn't been much about money for months now lol.

    If you do go, keep in touch x

    Hey hunni,

    I just wrote out a longgggg reply then lost it all!:confused:

    I still read your diary but dont comment as much as im no good with relationship advice and dont want to judge. Plus i think only you should and can decide whats best for you. No matter what others think.

    Dont go changing the way you dress or slap on the make up if its not you hunni. Coz the last thing you want to feel when you go out is uncomfortable because of what your wearing just to attract men. Just be you. I think you look great already from your facebook pictures!

    I too love my jeans and dont own a skirt or dress! My OH loves my boyfriend style jeans over what he calls sprayed on skinny jeans which leave nothing to the imagination! :rotfl:Even though i love my skinny jeans even if he dont!:rolleyes:

    Having a nice long soak in the bath, a hair treatment, a face mask and a good eyebrow pluck makes me feel like a different person!

    How is it living in your new pad?

    Thanks girlies for your replies. Hiya eternal_sunshine :)

    I still think your all nuts for saying I am strong cos I don't think I am at all! I haven't managed more than 4 days without contacting my ex so far although if I can make it through today it will nearly be 5!

    I am in pain tonight, got a headache which i think is from staring at a pc all day with my new glasses and had my brace adjusted today so in pain there too. Hes put nasty things on it that makes it more noticeable too so not feeling very hot today :rolleyes:
