    So, still no in-person, SSN-endorsed meetings in Orlando?  I only want SSN -endorsed meetings.  I've been a victim for too much of my life already.

    Hi All, I am currently in Berkshire, England.

    And now here is my secret, a very simple secret. It is only with the heart that one can see clearly that which is essential is invisible to the eye.

    mjm-
    thank you for the kind words. i have not. since our last communication 5-6 weeks ago, nothing. fathers day was bittersweet. got to spend it with my son which was great, but kind of hoped it had been long enough for her to let the girls reach out. 
    nope. 
    it is what it is. 

    it is, what it is.

    Re: Where are we all from anyhow?

    Soooo...noone from Orlando?? I have been told several times that there are no meetings here.This forum has saved my sanity and, possibly, my life. I mean that with all my heart. I am thinking of joining Al-Anon or AA just to get some sort of an in-person support system; but Open Path would be ideal. You people get it.

    I live in the New England area of the US. A few hrs drive to Canada. I frequently wish my great grandparents had never left Canada to be honest.

    Re: Where are we all from anyhow?

    I've found it difficult to make contact with any other straightspouses in this forum let alone find others in New Zealand to meet face to face (or even online!). 
    It's a hesitancy we all must feel, stepping out of our safe spaces, into the light.... with our individual stories that for the most part we get to only share on here....

    Reading the different stories gave me courage. I was not alone.
