As for the M...(sigh)....I wish I could give you some advice. I'm not sure that I am equipped to do that since, you are 'ahead' of me in so many ways. I DO know that piecing is hard. I would think that communication is still the most important thing and, just make sure that you are not holding some things in....that your feelings are heard and known.

FIB--

I actually read that on your thread an almost responded. Yes, piecing is hard. Intimidating. It was so much easier when I blocked out my H and was living a separate life. As my very good friend who does life coaching and meditation type stuff says, of course those guys on the mountain or off in retreats by themselves are able to stay centered and enlightened. They don't have to interact with anyone else!

And you actually gave me some good advice here...yes, I do need to make sure I'm not holding back anything. I don't know if I have been as clear about how important it is to me and my concerns about my age. I definitely need to sit down and talk with him...calmly.

You, my friend, are my hero. You're handling your sitch with such dignity and compassion. You've done far more than anyone should ever have to in your situation.

Thanks!
