I have been "checking it at the door" for months now, with absolutely nothing to show for it. I am getting tired of being a doormat. The bottom line is that I could be a whole lot less angry if she had just a little respect for me.
Don't hold your breath looking for that respect. I consider it respectful if my stbx says nothing at all to me.
You'll drive yourself crazy waiting on it or demanding it. This is when you really need to suck in that pride and show some self control. You really don't need her approval or respect anymore. I know it's hard, been there, done that!
"It is curious that physical courage should be so common in the world and moral courage so rare." -Mark Twain
