Awoken, what helps me the most when I start trying to mind-read STBXH and figure out his motivations/etc...is thinking to myself "NOT MY PROBLEM". Seriously, you and I have had our energy drained by living with unhealthy marriage dynamics. The freedom comes from letting go of the habit of using our mental and emotional energy trying to "understand" (=fix) our spouses.
