High achievers are tricky partners, coming out to your parents, curiosity...
Are you in a relationship with a high achiever? Or are you a high achiever struggling in a relationship? It can be tough on relationships when you're tough on yourself - in my weekly blog that's now live on iVillage.co.uk I've discussed this issue.
So sad to read of comedy giant David Croft passing away - legend behind so many sitcoms. What a gift - making people laugh after a hard day, spreading such joy, rippling amongst families sitting together around the telly. Irreplaceable!
So when is Phil in EastEnders going to start wondering why the usually moody Ben has a massive smile on his face?? Ben’s had his first gay kiss and is happy as can be - don't think tough guy Phil Mitchell is going to feel the same way.
TODAY’S TIP: if you're struggling about coming out to your parents first come out to a trusted relation. Maybe an older brother or sister or an understanding auntie or uncle. They can help give you the courage to come out and hopefully be there with you when you share your feelings with your parents.
I wish you so much luck! It's terrible in this day and age that some people still hide their sexuality from their parents. Be brave, and I hope you get the support you need to get you through coming out.
Can the Jacko trial ever get to the truth? So many conspiracy theories are whirling around - how can the jurors' judgment not be affected? They were shown a surreal picture of him on his deathbed - and that's going to characterise the trial - surreality.
Jules Oliver [Jamie's wife] proved that curiosity gets the better of celebs like the rest of us... pics of her twitching her curtains are in all the papers...she wanted to know what the fuss was in her road and it was Angelina Jolie visiting pal Gwen Stefani. Now that's a "girls' gossip sess" I would've loved to hear!
Take care, Pam x
