CAKE-EATING

[Sophie]

Building a friendship is a GOOD thing.

If all you EVER got was nothing and you got to be a servant, of course that would be terrible. But if in the end, your efforts give you the marriage you've always dreamed of, it would be worth it, right?

You want to do WHAT WORKS, right. You want to build REAL LOVE ... and part of real love IS FRIENDSHIP. Love and care.


So....how do you BALANCE this .... leaving ROOM for re-attracting him, nourishing a friendship, and yet NOT feeling taken advantage of?

What would be YOUR ideas for this?

I have to admit...it feels so much easier to be a friend...simply a friend. I have been feeling more content, and better about myself too.

Anything else has come to feel so strategic...and that takes much more emotional energy.

But, I'm new to this.

I don't know how to talk about the balance. I'm not experienced enough and have not made it through enough challenges yet.

I never thought my H was Cake-eatting until someone said he was.
