Surfergirl, you had tremendous losses when you were younger. No wonder you feel so conflicted about being with her when she doesn't seem to be up to what she "wants" for you.
I can't tell you what to do but I do know this..you do not have to explain anything to her. Timne had a good answer for you.......
I've found myself in situations where going would cost me more than I was able to handle. One such situation would be visiting my brother who has verbally abused me, stolen from me and in general been a real bully towards me for years. I won't go see him. It would cost me more in mental and physical health than it would be worth.
Listen to the people who have met her and been around her.
Take good care of you.......xoxo Pat
