How has everyone been since they last posted? Is there anything we can do as a community to help you?

Is there anything you would like to talk about but don’t want to make a whole post about it?

I’d love to hear from everyone if you are feeling up to responding and chatting about how you are doing.

I had a Spitz Nevis, which has the same appearance as an amelanotic melanoma, which in this stage would most likely have been spread in the whole body.

I've insisted to go to a couples therapist and we did. From the beginning she said she's only here to find out how to best manage the break-up. Nevertheless the therapist was optimistic that we could work this out. But she didn't want to, even after weeks.

I asked her a lot, as i'm a pretty openminded guy who can openly talk about bis feelings, fears and wishes. She is the opposite. The only thing i geht to hear is that she suddenly doesn't love me any more and that she needed more help with the kids. As i said i have to work a lot. From the therapist i got informed, that she never learned to express her real feelings, that she's still a child, which never learned to stand on her own feet and never accomplished anything in her life. And now she wants to grow up and become an adult und be independent. She's 34, but now i understand that he was right...
