Thank you, {{{{{YR}}}}}.

I hear so many things from so many places! From this board, to books, to family members, to our C, to my kids (who I try to keep out of the middle). And I just second guess everything I do!

I have always been a person that wears my heart on my sleeve, and always been completely open to my H. So, "giving space", is so foreign to me! I try. I really do!! I even got a tatoo of the chinese konji symbol for "patience" (I almost got "strength" but I figured I actually had that, at least up to last week, but patience was what I really needed help with). H is so "conservative" if he ever sees the tatoo, he'll probably roll his eyes and say "See how different we are!" and use it as one more reason we shouldn't be together. [Although he did like the hummingbird I got several years ago when I was 40.
