Just wanted to give you a bump. I think there is so much truth in your words at the beginning of this thread. I'm not attempting to take away from the concept of MLC. I think that it is real and if it is true MLC, they do wake up.
I also believe in lots of cases here, we just have selfish people who are basically spoiled and never taught or learned to admit that they are sorry. They have no regard for their promises or commitments...it is just easier to move on and find something new. Any guilt that they may feel is often times the reason they 'blame' the LBS. These are complicated matters and so difficult to figure out sometimes....do we have a person in MLC or just a selfish person who does not regard right from wrong.
I too think that a lot of these traits or disorders were always there. But I also think if they do the work they can over come these things and be better people. Just like we do the work on ourselves and become who we are supposed to be. But it totally depends on if the mlcer will face all of their issues. That I think is the variable of how long it takes and if they even come out of it.
Thank you Lissie...I agree that Poof thinks right now he is 'the man.' He has not learned yet what a real man is. You and I will teach that to our sons....because we love them. Honey, he loves you...he is just eating up the 'new attention' right now. You are on the right path for you....I respect you so much and love you.
Mermaid, you have made a good point here. That is where we all were/are heading...giving them the chance to face their issues.
