Posted: Wow,you guys are great. Not only very good advice but lots of it from lovely people.
You're all fantastic . Anybody who wants a visit to Oxford is welcome and can swing on my laces any time - or spin my cats/orphans around .
I know you're all right about taking risks and waiting for the right person but like Matthew said, it's easy to see it in other people, not so easy in yourself.
From now on I'm going to try to live more by the advice I give my friends. Be you and if people don't like it, they're not worth it.

Posted: Be careful with that. A good relationship will always change you slightly, but it will do so for the better. You won't quite get to be you, but it'll be a fairly close approximation. But definitely don't pretend. Let yourself adapt.
