What's it really all about?

[AlexEN]

Puppy,

I already told her quite some time ago I wouldn't do it if she conditioned it on anything else... No quid pro quo... She should do because it's the right thing to do but NO LINKAGE.


In any event, I wrote this back to her...

I get it…

I’d like to find a workshop that deals with the communications issue rather than do with Keith and Tom, as this isn’t really therapy or counseling.

What I liked is that it addresses some areas that might also help with respect to negotiating all of the things we’re going to have to figure out in a divorce settlement and not just what we’ll need to co-parent.

• The End of a Marriage: Doing the wrong thing and Doing the right thing
• The Four Horsemen: The way we communicate with each other
• Stress-Reducing Conversation
• Conflicting Life Desires: Here you will use your Life Maps for evening homework that are completed before the workshop
• Negotiation
• The Four Behavioral Styles: Here you will use your profiles that are completed online before the workshop
• How to handle anger and pain
• Forgiveness


I’ll see if there is an alternative.



... to which she responded...

Likewise. I agree with what you're saying...thank you for making the effort to find an alternative. Are your parents coming just because of that workshop, or did you just invite them for that weekend, anyway? Do they know?

..."Do they know?" meaning do they know about us (thought-bubble only since November Sweetie, thanks for asking.)
