The Great Pretender
Oh yes Im the great pretender (ooh ooh)
Pretending Im doing well (ooh ooh)
My need is such I pretend too much
Im lonely but no one can tell
Oh yes Im the great pretender (ooh ooh)
Adrift in a world of my own (ooh ooh)
I play the game but to my real shame
Youve left me to dream all alone

How CAN you all hear this crap and still care? I've been hearing what I don't do for 2 years and want to run, it amazes me that you are all still there. I'm starting to be able to pretend, but not doing a great job of it, probably easier in a few years when its more of HD, than now, when its also lots of him. I've promised to stay, and I know that's right, but not sure how much damage I'm going to do to myself. But I care too and I'm trying to play the game, even with parents saying I have to sort out my relationship before the illness problems, and to stop being such a child.

Yes it's crap. I'm sorry that you're both having such a tough time. I think that pretending is a way of coping, and that in doing so, I find myself slipping into real caring. I don't have the answers, that's why I blog! But I do believe that we're important too, and that everyone has their limits. What to do when these limits are reached, is another question. Thank-you garbie and giggle for commenting. It always helps to know that I'm not alone in it all.
All the best,
Dee

I'm intrigued by giggle's parents. How do they suggest that s/he can sort out the relationship problems before the illness problem?? Firstly, it is almost impossible to disentagle the two. Secondly...how do you sort out a realtionship??? It is a can of worms that needs a magic wand....if it is complicated by illness then what chance do you stand??

It's good (sad) to know I'm really not alone. I too am the best actor I know.
I've started a blog as well, I hope it helps. hd-him-me
