OK Puppy....I can see that you really aren't willing to open your mind to this....I'm sorry for your situation. It appears that you are convinced that there is not anyway what I'm saying could be true, which is sad, because the "reality" that you are convinced is true is likely going to lead you down the road to divorce. Just wish there was some way you could open your mind - start with a beginner's mind....but I do understand that the fact that she is not willing to meet your needs and keeps neglecting them, no matter how many times you go around this "it" and you tell her what you need and she knows and then she pulls back anyway, this has caused you to just sort of give up on wanting to meet her needs or bend over backwards any longer. That is understandable. Still sad, though, as I still stand by my previous assessment. You COULD be the man who makes her happy, and she COULD be the woman you desire her to be.
