That's not a big enough difference, so it should be OK. One just needs 3 solid hours sleep:)

God knows how I managed to write my email in a good way. Not usually a strong point of mine, but then, I did have a very relaxing weekend and pampered myself by getting a new suitcase (how very exciting! lol), using a facemask and dying my hair. The flat is much tidier now too. I feel cluttered if the flat is cluttered.

I have had a similar thing with a friend who I have known for years - She replied with some home truths about me too - we had a good rant at each other but are now better closer than ever ... we don't see each other a lot but arrange a monthly meal and things are back at ease! Sometimes clearing the air and getting things of your chests work ... a really good friend is one that'll work through the issues rather than give up. I hope you get things sorted!!

I remember someone mentioning men taking Folic Acid too. Is there a special one for men or is it the same as I take? DH isn't the healthiest of people so getting him on multi vits, codliver oil & folic?

Anything is fine for men I think:)

Who's user 348311? You need to set up your homepage so that we can have a look at your chart:)

Go to 'Sharing' on the top - 'Charting Home page' then 'Setup'.
Near the bottom, there's 'Published charts'.
Click your chart on the right box, and add it to the left and 'Save
settings'

On the top of that page in the grey box is your homepage address:)

When are you getting married? Does she have to be bridesmaid? If not, you could try clearing the air and have someone else as bridesmaid if it all goes a bit pear shaped.

Hmmm. Wedding is two months today and her dress isn't very MSE. So I'll have to put up with her for now at least.

Hen night should be interesting - two of my cousins will be 8 months pregnant and my SIL can't make it as she's having a C-section a few days after my hen. I have enough of a problem seeing SIL's bump, let alone having another 2 'in my face'. It's bound to be one of the major topics of the evening.

ETA: Euro - if you fancy writing my email for me..... LOL!

Just got back from gym ( been working at home today), and man I ache! I only wish that the effort I was putting in at the gym was reflected in my waistline...! Might help if I stopped eating like a horse, I suppose...

No more of those twinges, so maybe I'm not ov-ing after all... better BD tonight anyway

RE emailing friends to get stuff off your chest...I did that once to a very close friend - she'd let me down several times over quite important things, over the course of a year or so, whilst I felt that I had been a good friend to her for a number of reasons. I basically said that I felt that the relationship was unbalanced, and that I was going to stop "chasing" her all the time - so she could get in touch with me as and when she wanted to..... Haven't heard from her in 18 months.... I do get a bit sad when I think about it, but equally it was true - my mum always told me when we were younger that I did more for her than she did for me, and like a typical teenager I thought she didn't know anything! I think we just grew apart - it happens On the other hand, in that 18 months, I've become a lot closer to some other friends, so it's not like I'm billy-no-mates! I guess I'm just not as good at writing emails as you, euronorris! :rotfl:

Ooh excitement - just remembered OBEM is on tv tonight! :j

Evening everyone, CD1 for me as I suspected from yesterdays cow-bag-of-the-year-major-cob-on :rotfl: My poor OH only had to look at me and I was off, god I was horrible poor bloke

Anyway, got my Clear Blue Fertility thingybob to play with so that'll keep me amused for a bit (if only to try and get the batteries in the right way :rotfl:)

Lots of luck for everyone and here's hoping for loads of BFP's :beer:

I took some advice from a work friend, who went through something similar, and tried to keep in mind what I've discussed with therapist.

So, I started by saying I have something to get off my chest, that I don't want it to ruin things between us but equally, can't keep it inside any longer. Then, I went on to explain what had upset me, why it upset me and how it made me feel. I also admitted my own failings in the situation (not speaking up sooner) and recognised the more recent, positive changes she's made to the situation. Ending with the invitation to get stuff off her chest and tell me how she feels about it all.

It ain't something that comes easy to me. I usually go for the throat or ignore situation altogether x

Edit: you also have to keep in mind that you are not responsible for how they react, or feel about what you've said, nor can you control it. All you can do is say how you feel about it and why, and invite them to do the same. X
