Not the pain she is feeling, sorry to say she needs to, Pain is the price for wisdom. But you! What a difference.

Are you sure he can't try and fix it just a little? And post back here in a year or two? ;\)

Right there ^^^^^, Jack.

He's trying to sell himself.

I'm hoping that's where it stopped though....

It is. I posted the entire conversation. I said very little, and left her alone. About an hour later she still looked ragged as she was leaving to go to work. But she joked with me a little and was pleasant. I let her deal with her stuff on her own.

I did NOT say anything about 'trying again' or us being stronger together. Nope. Just that I have faith again and I'm not going to let things happen to me again.

I think it was more a declaration.

Like me saying, "I love you, but I will never put myself through this again."

Ahhhh, I hope your right.

I agree. SHE needs to work this out herself. You can't take this on. She can either choose to tear this asunder....or get herself better and realize that it's no better out there.

Stay the course...you ARE better...and..it's OK to have a bad day. Share it with us or with one of your 'BetterMen'...not her...
