Hi GFI

No, that`s not my assertion although a reasonable assumption based on what I had written.
My MLC husband (like other 50ish men) is, I think, worried about his attractiveness to women. Or at least he is preoccupied with it. Given where he`s at, I`m not sure that he is putting much value or emphasis on friendship. So I`m just wallpaper, although not bad-looking wallpaper (I have to add that last bit for my still-fragile ego).
How do you keep your hope through all of this? You`ve been at it for so long... incredible. Genuine kudos to you!! Bravo!
