Flying solo
It is a day for ones.
Let’s start with the bad one. Lilith and I have broken up. We had wonderful chemistry and a lot of very good times, but in the end I didn’t feel like we were going to be compatible. I’m not going to go into our differences publicly. I know I am going to miss her for a very long time and I am feeling like crap right now.
But, there’s a good one too. Unfortunately the goodness of this one is completely dwarfed by the badness of the bad one, but hey - it’s still a good one.
I present one good sock:
It’s a man’s size 11 done in Plymouth Sockotta with a darted heel and wedge toe. I’m going to take red and blue Sockotta to duplicate stitch my company’s logo in the ankle.

sending good thoughts your way, even more than usual.

So sorry. Going through my own break-up too and understand the feeling like crap. Hope your heart starts to mend soon.

I’m so sorry about your breakup.

I’m sorry, too. You have to do what’s best for you, though.
And what’s a darted heel?

That’s a perfectly lovely sock.
I’m sorry things didn’t work out with you and Lilith. I know it might not seem like it now, but it’s good to figure these things out. I had my heart broken 2 years ago (my the man I thought I was going to marry…) & it took a long time for me to process things and discover that it wouldn’t have worked out.
Take it slow & I’m sending warm wishes your way~

Huge hugs to you, David - you were there for me during a very bad time in my life, please mail if you need a chat!
That’s a seriously good-looking sock!
Lots of love xxx

Hee! company socks.
My next pair are going to be man-sized for a worsted-stocking knave. Why can’t everyone have tiny feet like me?
Breakups suck, but it’s better than spending the rest of your life with someone that isn’t going to be the right kind of partner for you. Hang in there, it’ll work out.

That sucks, David. I’m sorry you’re feeling sad. Break-ups stink even when it’s the right thing to do. Nice Sock. Knitting therapy is much less fattening than either drinking therapy or ice cream therapy. Good choice.

Of course you’re feeling like crap.
But wouldn’t it be great if one good sock could heal everything that hurts our hearts? I wish that’s how it was.

Big Hug! Sorry about the break-up.
Awesome sock! Hope to see you at the YB soon.

Late to the post. I’m sorry I didn’t read this sooner. And so sorry to read about the breakup, though I trust it’s for the best for both of you. Breakups suck no matter what, though.
Big love to you.

I’m sorry about the breakup.
Dang, I should have asked for your help on my stupid heel today!

I’m sorry for your breakup *internet hug*
That’s a nice-looking man sock, though.
