The truth is that they're are so uncertain about their feelings that they're scared to share them. They don't want to get our hopes up. That's probably the most thoughtful thing the WAS/MLCer does.
I disagree. I think it's the most cowardly, treacherous, nasty thing they do. because it sabotages chances to actually work through the problems in the marriage.
i've lost count of the times we havent tried something, or done something, because my wife didnt want to give me or my children "false hope".
false hope? no, it's because the alien recognizes it would actually HELP our MARRIAGE, so it cant be allowed.
