And as far as looking at what she criticisizes me about, I mean you name it. It is just her words to me are 98% negative, nothing I do is good enough. Even when I made the Deans List she just acted like it was nothing. No congrads or anything like that. I'm used to it so I dont even pressure for answers as to why she is the way she is, but it has gotten under my skin on a few occasions and even still today.

Do you think if you change your ways and just show happiness and not let her words get to you (since they're just words afterall), then she will change in return? Instead of misery loves company, maybe the opposite can happen?

I have been trying, I have been giving her compliments on the way she dresses, and the way she looks. Always tell her you have a good day, and things like that, but I get nothing in return. This morning she did say ok thank you. So I dont know, and I guess we will see whats happening after her therapy session tonight.

Maybe the okay thank you is a baby step and what you're doing is helping. Unfortunately, I think we have to think of them more and be very conscience of our actions at this time. They're struggling as well.

Yes I understand, but I will keep it up I understand the baby steps. And believe it or not Im the one who is getting really nervous about the retrouvaille situation. Even though she is the who brings it up and it is about 38 days away. I'm hoping I can make the right moves during and after this event. I wonder
