Rob is just fine Beno, you can drop the "X" LOL! How do you do it indirectly? I'm almost amazed that you can't see it yourself but I also remember being in the same position and I was clueless also (and afraid). You do it indirectly by tolerating her behavior, you do it because you are afraid to lose her, it's possible at one point you were secure in your relationship but now I'm pretty sure you aren't secure at all, you are insecure and this feeling inside you just grows everyday. Your body language, supplicating her, giving her what she wants, etc.
again rob you nailed it why didnt i see it, cant see the wood for the trees, yes im really insecure and yes my body language is open and vunrable and she senses it, time to shut down i think,
