It's hard to gauge his response because he said nothing. When this started I let him get to me and I reacted to his moods. After I found this site I started doing better, mirroring his actions rather than reacting to his actions. That was hard for me to be so withdrawn and distant, sometimes I made exagerated moves to step out of his way just to be sure he knew what I was doing. Silly isn't it?
When I flipflopped I did my best to stay steady or smiley regardless of his moods. I realized that I was not the only one influencing his moods, and I know that after the rosie times with ow and then coming home to me was the last thing he wanted to do. Even now yet I don't know how this will all turn out, but I do know that it's better now than it was.
You don't think your W has an OM, but what about the rest of what goes on in her life? What other factors drive her to be so obsessed over every little thing?
Have you heard from your son since he's been gone?
Hi pal! I'll start at the bottom. We heard that S19 arrived safely. As far as I know that's all anyone has heard. I expect he is busier than he thought he was going to be.
W has always been a pretty focused person. She is a detail person, and she doesn't do things halfway. I'm much more take things as they come. So there is a bit of natural conflict.
I'm thinking about the mirroring. It might not be too hard, since she doesn't change much. The the flip flops to kind of throw her a bit. How often did you flip? For how long?
Oh, I've done the exaggerated step out of the way!
