Hi Thinking
I think the upbeat attitude is a good practice for me
By using it in these past 21 months since bomb, It has helped me in many ways
no Im not a strepford wife
B/c my H is checked out, he is not a good source to discuss problems with
i have a C and a few friends i can talk to

for these past 21 months I have tried to be upbeat with my H
I have created new friends.. a new job..I dance now..my relationship with my kids is much better than before b/c i DB them too

as far as H, it helped create a friendship in my case..H still does not want to come home
we do it for us..we change and become better..happier eventually
My H appreciates howe I let him go and dont bug him for the most part..I cant change him only me
In this MLC, it takes a long time for them to sort it out
some return..many more will not
by DB, we probably give the M the best chance for a return
and we gain so much more for us
it takes time
peace
