I know DB 101. If H doesn't call or come home I just go about my business or whatever I have planned. I was referring to early in our relationship, I would have dinner on the table etc., and no husband. When I started to do the same thing he realized it wasn't cool, and he didn't like being treated that way.
I think part of my resentment comes from the fact that I am excluded. I used to be a part of that group and we had some very fun times in our local pub. The owners are friends and all of our friends hang there. We met there! Since the MLC my H is very emphatic that he does not want me to go in there. In fact, he told me during a recent Alien appearance that if I walk in, he will walk out, and embarass me in front of our friends. The other H & W no longer go in there, and my friends confirm that he is not meeting anyone, he does nothing out of line while there..... He just doesn't want to be with me.
Thank you for the info on the links. I will look them up.
Most of us are about as happy as we make up our minds to be.
