Hello, John and Doves,
Thank you for sharing. You know who you are. I am happy for you and your family. God is good!
However, on the point of elaborating about myself, I am sorry to disappoint you.
To put it bluntly, “Quid pro quo” is a game you play in business or bed, but not personal relationships.
I was not being coy when I spoke about a personal issue.
I learned in Celebrate Recovery to set boundaries for myself, and to respect those boundaries in myself and others.
~Blessings, Mike
