H&L,
Thanks for sharing. We LBS are so busy DBing, we don't stop to think about what the WAS's underlying issues might be.

The author of my marital self-help book, states that our W's are wounded for different reasons. He's referring to woman, but his advice applies to H's and W's. Our responsibility as a spouse is to support them in their growth.

His words have helped me to work on being less judgmental of my W, and work on being more patient with her. I would grade myself a C- as a H, prior to the separation. I think I'm a solid B now, but still have much practice to do.
