Cheers for the support. Yes I have grown some and will not take crap anymore. Shoe is on other foot now. Difficult to back off, as the love is still there, but I am not pressuring her at the mo.
As to the marathon........waiting for the entry papers. Going to enter us both to run for a Cancer charity, which is close to her heart as she lost her mum to it 5 years ago, so it will show I care.
It will be the full 26 miles. There's a great Brit film called 'Run Fatboy Run', which deals with our sitchs in a great way. I will be that marathon runner .
OK, sorry, I thought the cancer run and the Edinburgh event were different. They are the same, correct?
Why are you awake so late... nearly 1:00 AM ????
My advice to any first-time marathon runner:
First, follow a structured training program
Second, on the day of the race, run the first 10 miles slower than your planned pace. For me, the adrenaline kicked in, and I "burned out" the first 10 miles, and it cost me dearly.
But you can do it. Think positive. Do not say, "I can't..."
During one of the conversations, she admitted that she had not seen OP since May, but that Counsellor had said it was alright to contact him. Maybe I was wrong, but I did do the 'I love you, but I'm not going to share - him or me' act (stupid I know).
Who is this councelor??? Five months since she's seen OM and the councelor thinks its a good idea to stoke the fire again??? Ditch the councelor!!!
I think the "I love you but won't share you" thing was perfect. Its true, and its the right thing to do. And Mark is right, sex for a woman (no matter what we say ) is emotional.
Things are still going well, I think your W is stressed about work and kids. You aren't putting pressure on her, so just wait for her to 'level out' and things will be fine.
Methinks that W is using C as an excuse. C described OP as a symptom and I would think that advising it would be ok to continue to contact did not come from her.
Bit of a crappy start to the day. W working and trying to make me feel like I was not parenting properly. I snapped a bit and will apologise tonight, but will also explain that we do do things differently.
Running the marathon hopefully for the cancer charity. Don't worry about me running fast - this will be a slow plod (not until May so plenty of time to practise).
Got a new 180 starting - paramotoring. Contacted the local person and hopefully will start next weekend - just for me.
