Thanks for your post. As terrible as this experience has been, I am really thankful that these boards allow us to support eachother. Amazing that so many people are going through it too.
Been reading about your sitch. I can relate the experience of having spouse talk in absolutes...as in "things were ALWAYS" or in the finality of choice to D. Its helpful to understand possible reasons why they need to interact this way, though still does not make it hurt less.
I think you are doing a fantastic job navigating. Hang in there for now. Like the experienced folks here say, sometimes doing nothing and letting things ride is actually doing the best thing. Or, if you are not sure what to do, do nothing until it becomes clear.
Will check back soon. :-) TD
Hello traveldane.
You're welcome...that was some really good info. that you posted there! I'm with you, in that I'm thankful for this board also. There are lots of hurting people here...and fortunately, there are lots of smart and experienced people here too!
Hurting people say hurtful things, and mad people say hurtful things too!
Thank you...it's been a mutha! I feel better and stronger! I'm doing all I can do right now, which is being the best dad I can be to our kids, and being the best antlers I can be. I'm learning. Still dark, and doing a lot of 'nuthin' regarding the relationship...which is 'something' according to Coach!
How are you traveldane?
