I wasn't worried about or thinking about what my H needed/wanted from the M. I wasn't even thinking about what I wanted or needed from my M. I've said it before, unfortunately, the M gets put on the back burner in a lot of cases. I don't know exactly why it's the M that gets put last, but for some reason I think this happens all the time w/o us even realizing that it's happening. We just do what we need to do each & every day, and end up leading parallel lives w/ our spouse.
