    It's been the most turbulent 12 months of my life and still going into my second year on EC continues to throw many many curve balls.

    There are some super special souls on EC, I thank all who have taken the time to read my threads and posts and thank you even more to the people who have replied to them, you've given me encouragement support love and inner peace when I thought I could not cope.

    I've often described myself as a tortured soul, constantly tearing myself apart but coming here and baring all to you, I've felt a sense of belonging, you've helped me feel accepted and less tortured.

    You all have a special place in my heart, I'm here for you like you've been here for me.

    Here is a link to my first thread on EC for those who wish to view it http://emptyclosets.com/forum/coming-out-advice/105538-married-ten-years.html

    Peace and love

    Richie(&&&)

    edit I'm a week early but still I feel kinda emotional today

    I didn't realize our anniversaries were so close. It has certainly been an eventful year, hasn't it? I hope we've managed to help with at least some of the torture. I hope that but your 2nd anniversary post, it's gone completely. (*hug*):thumbsup:(&&&)

    Hi Richie

    Time seems to fly by these days, congratulations on staying with all your extended family on EC and let’s hope that your next year is less turbulent as you work towards a happier future.
