Sorry everyone -- just kind of detaching a lot lately. Don't feel the urge to work on saving my M since I feel like I gave it all I had and W still wants out. I think I finally hit that line where I felt I did everything I could, and am now focusing on NOT focusing on my W. It is sad, but I feel it is necessary for me to get back to me and what I and I alone want for my life. I am still reading up on people and their sitches, but am finding less energy to invest in the whole process (posting to others, too, unfortunately).
I've learned a lot about myself while here, and have taken great strides to improve my character with the help of this site. I know I can do better still, but I'm happy with the path I'm on in this regard. DBing will always be a part of me because it is so broad in its application. DBing is a R technique that can be used in fostering and strengthening all types of R's, and at the very least it has helped me step back, reflect, and empathize before opening my big mouth.
