hey congrats.

I am such a therapy pusher now...I thought losing the weight would make things better.  Intensive truama therapy as made things better (not that I mind weighing 200 lbs less).

Congrats on the rides.  About your friend... Disneyland is not always the Happiest place on earth in JULY!  Too hot too crowded long lines with no shade.  Probable dehydration and fatigue.  Maybe your friend's feet hurt!  Lots of factors that can lead to the crankies.  Sit down someplace cool and comfortable and have a heart to heart with your friend.  Also after surgery we really need to take care of our need to eat and drink when we should, maybe it rubbed your friend the wrong way and he/she is feeling bad about what was said too.  Another thought- are you too needy or is he/she not empathetic enough?  Feel Better!

You know something....   My friend is not empatheric at all.  My friend has a lot of issues
and not sure what was going on.  Also it was hot.... and my friend was wearing a long sleeve.
I had expectations, I guess I am needy ( seriously taking a look at it)  I just feel plain bad...
even today.   its a little bummer...but i know I will get through this soon.

Thank you for your reply.

I don't know you personally, and it's impossible to judge someone via email,etc., because the written word has no inflection. Everyone comes across more agreessive online than they would in person. It's easy to be agressive behind the keyboard because there's not immediate feedback no matter how douchey the post. That's something that a lot of people forget, but I don't think I've see that kind of behavioer from you. I would take critiques online with a heaping teaspon of salt.

I am pretty brutally honest, myself, but I believe honesty can be tempered with tact. To paraphrase Tyra Banks, "Keeping it real" is not a license to be rude and hurtful. There are kind, positive ways to offer constructive criticism and hurtful, mean ways to tear someone down. Unless your friend has no social skills, there's probably something deeper going on. Friendships can be complicated -- particularly between women. You have taken some very positive steps in your life, and that can set off the passive agressive tendencies in friends -- girlfriends, especially.

You may be needy and aggressive. If you are, I bet you know that better than anyone. Just be honest with yourself.

Yes,  I think needy may have fit.  But I also know my friend is going through some major stuff.
I also know that we both were not happy for the rest of the day and that hurts more than
anything.  It was hot and waiting in lines wasnt the most funnest thing for the rest of the day.
Thank you for your feedback.

Good News:
So, I just arrived home from Disneyland.  I was afraid because my head kept telling
me I cannot fit into the rides.   Guess what...  no problems and it felt TERRIFIC!
I was able to fit in all rides.  And guess what>>>??  my feet dont hurt at the end of the
day.  Before surgery, I couldnt be on my feet for more than two hours.  I think
I made a post about it before surgery.  WOW what growth.

Sad News:
Someone told me today, I was needy.  Honestly, my feelings were so hurt that i couldnt
enjoy the rest of my day. I have not been to Disneyland in 15 years and because of this
I am not looking forward to go back.  It was hot, tons of people, and the person who
I went with said I was NEEDY?   I just shut down and was silent.  I even left early.
What a fricken waste of money...and a waste of a day.  I am so hurt and pissed.
The person who it came from is brutally honest.

Now I am like...what is wrong with me?  what is it about me that made my friend say
i am needy.  There is a reason why my friend is saying this.  My freind thinks I am
agressive too.   I feel sad.... oh soOOOoo sad.  I am crushed too.

Today is my 6 months and how I am feeling right now...  I am not into picture taking.
Just the feeling in the moment. I am sure it will change by tomorrow.

I am just hurt......
The good news.... You went to Americas favorite amusement park and actually participated rather than just being a spectator. Yay Doc!

The bad news... You went with the wrong friend! If all your "friend" had to say to you was "your too needy" then it was clearly a waste of time opening yourself up to him/her.

Mary.. just focus on all that you have accomplished in this short 6 month period. Focus on YOU and screw the rest!

Thank you Craig!

Yeah!!!!  I participated!!!  and my feet did not hurt at the end of the day. WOW....

Maybe I am needy and it is something to take a look at. But how my friend
expressed it was very hurtful.

Thank you for the reminder to focus what I have accomplished in 6 months.
I like your last line and will carry that with me.
