    Am feeling really low this afternoon, have just been crying for a little while. Am supposed to organise a meeting with my current job to go in and discuss my reasons for resigning and the reasons why I am off sick with depression and anxiety, but I cannot face it at all.

    Haven't got out of my PJ's for 3 days running but I think I may have to tonight as I think OH is trying to get me out to the cinema

    Anyone who can help you with work? A union rep or friend? What about OH?

    Ummm, call her anything other than girlie, otherwise I'm likely to cry every time I read your posts lol. Its not a big problem tho, its alright :)

    Bunnie, if you cannot face it, don't do it. You might make yourself worse if you push it too much. Hope you feel better soon xxx

    I just called her girlie, as easier than 'This Girl' :o

    I'll try and think of something to call her...........if anyone has any ideas? :o

    How about calling her by her first initial? Or would that be too obvious?

    Could call her 'S' I suppose, but something a bit longer would be better.

    Hmmmmmmmmmm.

    Its totally irrational, its just thats what someone calls me, and I can't talk to them at the moment, and its hurting rather bad :(
    Thanks for understanding and putting up with me!

    I won't use it then. Don't want to make you feel worse.

    I'll use 'S' for now, but will bold it, so it doesn't look like a mis-type.

    Okay, so i've just had a text.

    She was glad to see me, would love to meet up again if I am 'up for it' :o and suggests next week for 'coffee'

    How long do I wait to reply, so I don't look too sad?

    She added an x at the end, like a kiss. Do I do the same?

    Erm..........:o

    I'd reply now - otherwise she might be sat at home wondering if you like her etc like you've been doing :)
    Always put the same number of x's at the end that she did :)
