"I have made my case before him and he chooses not to comply, so I will let it alone and make do as I have for over the past 2 decades."

Now.. We are getting somewhere. This I can relate to.

"he chooses not to comply"

"and make do as I have for over the past 20 years."

^^^ I modified the last one.

"It was like reading some unknown language. I sure hope I don't come across to others the way he pictured me."

Tell me how I picture you? You will not hurt my feelings. I may not post tomorrow but I will post.

"Well, now Forrest, I could let that hurt my feelings (but I won't), b/c I have worked very hard over the four decades of M without very much help or encouragement from my "other half" what-so-ever! Anyone that knows me and knows him....also knows the truth!"

I am not here to hurt your feelings. Don't stop posting. We (Me and You) communicate different. I had to get you to my communication level. I am understanding it better now. Bear with me. So what you are telling me is "everyone" sees it your way. They see the "truth". I like it.

"I really don't know what some expect me to do."

I want you to slow down on your personal development for just a second.

"I told him that I didn't like what he was suggesting and neither would my H and that I didn't think it would work for us....."

For the record... That was not me. Please stop putting me in the same group as him. As much as you want to confuse me and "him". That is not me. I hear you.

"Just b/c I didn't think that particular list of "assignments to do" would work my particular personality or my H's.....doesn't mean I would not look at something else offered."

Again for the record.. That was not me. Now for the record I will ask.. Why do you want to please everyone? Got a little tip for ya.. Thats not really you. You learnt that. Life has taught you that. Stop it!

"I appreciate the support that people here have given me and the encouragement."

I have given you none.

"That helps a lot. And....I want to help in return"

I see you.. in me. Here is what I see. This is what I can latch on to. I can "see" you wanting other people not being you. Here we agree. I don't want people to be "Me". It sucks and I wish it on no one. I understand.

"I think both my H and I have had to go through some "spiritual" healing between us."

This is important. You will notice I left out the fluff or the "". Do not try and communicate back as I do. Fully understand you do not get me. I know you don't. I don't expect you to. I don't want you to. I can see who you are just fine. Stop trying to please everyone. I "see" you. I stated it above. Just type. Like you would. You actually make it move obvious when you try to talk like me. Imagine that.

"always am hoping that a better day is around the corner"

It is. You have been around as long as me. Actually about the same time. We have followed different paths. Sadly your path has been much harder. Now I can see how you could fall into it. But I wanted you to do something much different.

Me and you now.

I know the issues you have had. It sucks to be old. Don't take that wrong. But it just sucks that on top of it all.. Well you are old. You forget things. You can't make it all work like you wanted. Stuff just does not work like it used to. Still DB applies. Where are you gonna be when they move him from his "chair"? I gotta think right by his side. That says alot to me. I want you (My wife) right there too. What you are doing/have been doing is not working. I know you have tried. With all your heart. And it did not work. Sad as it seems you gotta try again. You got to make it work. You posted. You got my vote.

This is by far (In my book) the best post you have ever made.

I am glad I got the pressure up. I don't care that you did not understand. Or anyone else for that matter.

Simple story is you have "excused" what you are doing is not working.

Lets work together and find something that might.

As much as you may think this went "no where". I am really "liking it".

You keep this up ... We will have you fixed up in no time. MLC and all.
