    Great to read all your positive posts Emma, very inspiring! I'm in north London and have been buying some clothes in charity shops recently, I've found nice things, brands like Reis, Coast, River Island, but they're not so cheap, more like Primark prices. The manager at the charity shop tried to sell me an Armani t shirt for £25, probably well worth it, but I'm trying to save money!

    I love your diary, Emma, so positive and funny always puts a smile on my face! I mean recently, the first pages made me really angry for you  :#

    Hi Emma, I don't think anyone would say this has ruined their day. I am sorry to hear you were in that state, grateful it didn't work. I said it before I love your positivity and admire your strength to get here after what you've been through, even more now knowing how bad it actually was for you. You have turned your life around and know you are strong and enough. Company would be nice but not necessary. Looking forward to hearing about your date 😉
    Hugs xoxo

    Congratulations for coming so far. And realising that it was your ex's issues and not you. I have loved reading your journey from dark to light. Long may it continue!
