She and I agreed going into this -- and the last time, too -- that e-mail would work best for us, since we both get so defensive when we talk.
"Placating" . . "Supplicating" . . . so if I try to enforce a boundary already established and agreed upon (that we are going to WORK at this), it's "supplicating," and if I'm not an AZZ about it, I'm "placating."
Geesh.
What you are telling me, in essence, is that as we fight to save our marriage, I'm not allowed to ask, for anything.
I'm sorry, I just flat out disagree. I asked her for a couple of very specific things:
1) To continue to talk with me, even if it's not R talks; and
2) To please point me toward the signs that show this is even IMPORTANT to her, or that she's making any EFFORT here.
If those are unreasonable requests, or are "supplicating," then I'm just more lost than I already thought I was.
