wunderwoman Posted April 11, 2005 Report Share Posted April 11, 2005 I realized something the other day. I was at home, hanging out with my new boyfriend, and my phone rang and i just picked it up.No hesitation. No concern that a bill collector would be on the other line. I thought to myself....WOW, Good credit IS SEXY!Until recently (the past few weeks) my home phone ringer was NEVER on. I mean, it wasn't on for years unless I was expecting a call (and I had caller ID). Now, I have no hesitations. I'm in such a different place in my life and it feels great.I got rid of caller ID, call waiting, call forwarding (used to forward the phone to my cell to see who was calling) voicemail, all that additional crap. My phone bill is low, and my self-esteem is high.Now, I'm paying it forward by spreading the knowledge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One way or another... it does get better. :D *Hugs* -Jenn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rising_score Posted April 11, 2005 Report Share Posted April 11, 2005 Congratulations!!!!!!I am finally to that point where I feel like I do not have to screen my calls anymore as well. Even if an old JDB calls me about something, it would be past the SOL, and I now know how to handle it. Thank god for this message board. You are right.....good credit is sexy!!!

breathing_easier Posted April 12, 2005 Report Share Posted April 12, 2005 wunderwoman: I know exactly what you mean about getting to the point of being able to answer the phone once again without dread. That's how I came up with the "breathing easier" moniker. Good for you!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

creditworthy Posted April 14, 2005 Report Share Posted April 14, 2005 I hear ya! I can't believe all the stress and aggravation I spent dancing around with callers trying to find out who they were without admitting to who I was. I was my own imaginary roomate for years!
