I'm sorry you're having such a rough time, Gud. I wish there were something I or anyone could do.
And don't you ever stand for that sort of thing. Someone ever tries to kill you, you try to kill 'em right back! ... You got the right same as anyone to live and try to kill people.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights
{{{Gud}}} I'm so sorry.
{{{-t}}} I think I'd go postal if I discovered previously unsuspected debts just now.
Hooray for Nora and Tom's grown-up house-buying abilities.
DH and I fell into love and best friendship in the same 48-hour period right after we met. Which I wouldn't have believed possible before meeting him. I was a big believer in the You Must Be Best Friends FIRST theory of relationships. Which mostly meant that, having secured a male best friend freshman year in college, I just couldn't let go of the idea we were destined for each other.
I'm angsting about money again.

Ugh, my marriage is on the rocks again. Don't know how this is going to end.
Oh, fuck. I'm sorry Gud. I am hoping hoping hoping this works out for you and your family.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Aw, Gud, wishing you the best.
I have to have both love and friendship for a relationship to last. My parents were friends for 7 years before they married, so maybe that's a part of it. I will say that of my circle of acquaintances, the two most "romantic" --the ones who believe only in love at first sight and both of whom say they can't be friends with someone they date--are the ones still unattached in their late 40s. Both of them have had lots of partners over the years, but they would fall for someone, start dating, get to actually KNOW the person, and then lose affection. I think love at first sight can lead to lasting love--but that's more of an anomaly than a likelihood.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
{{{Gud}}} I am so sorry. I wish I could wave a magic wand and make everything perfect for you.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
{{{Gud}}}
Joe and I were friends first, but mostly cause he had a girlfriend when we met. For me, the best friend feelings came after the love. And sometimes, I tell him, "I need to bitch at my friend about my husband. Turn off husband mode."

Oh - and remember how we were talking about sex drams and people you know IRL? I TOTALLY had one about a co-worker and now, I don't to talk to him at all. I do have a teeny minor crush on him, but he's like 3000 miles away.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
Gud, I wish there was something I could do for you. I'm sorry.

Now tagless for your comfort.
{{Gud}} I hope things work out.
DH and I met drunk at a party in college. We like to refer to it as the one night stand that lasted forever. Owen must NEVER know this.
