You know, Trusting, I am much the same way. I felt as if I had become H's mother and I was the one who held it together while H had his moods.

I am back in touch with my feminine side and it feels good. I can be strong and feminine.

As far as stars in eyes...I think admiration is a legitimate need. It's one on marriage builders.
