I feel like I have lost a lot of ground in just two weeks since the PA bomb. How do I get that ground back?
I'll have to follow you for awhile before I can answer that with some specific examples, but I'll try to do that. For now, I'd like to see you stop being so REACTIVE, and to stop turning to your HUSBAND for your shoulder to lean on and cry on, and just start with those two things. There's not a lot of wisdom I can add beyond some of the sage stuff you've already received here, including from some real vets. MLC has its own wrinkles, and my experience is more with infidelity specifically, but there's a lot of overlap. Conveying strength, calm and resolve is one of those overlaps.
It's easy to play for his sympathy. Mucher harder to play for his RESPECT, and for his ATTRACTION.
