    I'm the same with keeping financial stuff off FB Hypno - I find that "real life" pals tend not to understand particularly! :o

    Most of my RL friends have very little idea of what I went through, financially - although I have told a couple of them since I became DF, because now it is "I was" rather than "I am" which is a whole lot easier to say! Needless to say, they are somewhat surprised at just how bad it was, which is quite nice in a way, because it shows that we managed to get through it maintaining some sort of level of appearance, if that makes sense!

    Its the old swan thing isn't it. Serene on the surface and paddling madly underneath. Work friends etc, only see the serene swan on the surface...

    Absolutely, Chev - a very apt description!

    I don't know how you got through it all Hypno, while still holding onto your sanity.


    ........ oh :o


    Well, definitely dignity intact :)
    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort
