    First I just want to say that seeing that someone replied to this almost made me cry. I want to thank you for taking the time out of your day, your week, your life to read that. I didn’t pay attention to just how long it was before I posted so didn’t really expect anybody to say something back...

    At what point do you make your exit after a conversation?

    Thanks so much for the compliment! My name has always been one of my anchors, it was one of the few things that made me feel good about being unique or different. People always told me my name was different and the way i spelled it was even more different and that always made me feel special...

    Thanks Richelle for your response! Wow, just from reading some of the posts on here I can really see that there is a lot of good people and good energy on this platform which is a relief to me, I’ve never been able to really discuss this topic with anyone besides myself, and I’m starting to...
