Hey GIMA, been wondering if you could stop by my sitch and offer your insights on my last couple posts. I seem to be detaching a bit more.

On your post above, I had been reading it, and wondering what your looking to watch her reaction so closely for? My immediate feeling was you were going to try and fix or react to how she handle's quitting her job. I think you need to be careful there, and only validate how she feels, IF she opens up to you on it.

She has (IMHO) always placed too much importance on her job as a form of identifying who she is. I take the approach that I work to live, not live to work. My career is important, but it is not WHO I am.


Is that just for us DB forum posters to understand your wife a bit? I worry that's a sign of you looking at 'fixing' your W the way she looks at her career based on how you approach your career...

Hopefully I am just over analyzing your post, but wanted to post to you on it how I felt after reading it.. :o)
