Hi Stella_K, Just wanted to thank you for your support over my own MLCer.
I think you are right my W is in a living hell herself and I am sure she wishes it would end. My W is the same and is not a great decision maker as she does not look forward for any future problems but just wants to be happy on the day.
I think the real problem is the self-esteem issue and as hers has sunk mine has risen so I am feeling very detached.
I do love her and want to be with her, on the other hand I know that I could live without her and have a good life too. The decision to ride out the MLC is mine and at least that is something I have control of.
How strong is the deadline in your H's mind? My W cannot accurately recall what she did or said yesterday, the MLC fog is causing total confusion, it really is like dealing with a petulant teenager. When I have pressed W on any issue she has just said the most hurtful thing she can and then rescinded. Could you just ignore the deadline and see what happens? Perhaps if he doesn't mention it neither should you.
