Default We are Women of Worth

I love DD because we are treated to wonderful products, amazing ideas and a caring and loving community. We share our stories here. Aino shared her story of the "popporn". I just attended a workshop that was developed to help women who's partners struggle with sexual integrity. It is everywhere, my DH, politians...The weekend was a way to affirm that women are worthy and give them ways to cope and heal! One way was connecting to others so I
just want to say thanks for the lovely comments many you have left.I came
away from the workshop feeling empowered,but my guy is in recovery and doing well. I don't want this to be a commercial for the organization that gave
the workshop, but if anyone has any questions, just send me a PM. Love all you women of worth at this community.

Thanks for being so open here Deanie. I'll echo what you say in that if our partner or family member has a serious issue like this, we didn't cause it and we can't cure it. What we can do is value ourselves, work on our own issues and be a support to them as they walk their own path towards healing. Love to you and those who struggle this way.

Life is about connecting, isn't it? It's definitely helped me when I needed strength. I draw a lot of strength from this amazing group of women. Glad you can too.

It certainly helps to know you are not alone. It is humbling reading of the difficulties many of us face.
