Questions for you & I know everyone is sick of the same ones, but...
1. I see no evidence of OW. Let me tell you I am one smart cookie & darn sneaky at that, I can't find a thing. Oh I believe there COULD be one, but if there isn't it's one thing that doesn't fit w/MLC.
2. I see no evidence of financial abuse.
3. Aside from him being gone all the time playing bball & fishing (which I attribute to him wanting to get away from ME), I don't see any type of disconnect from the kids or any of his other responsibilites. He will tickle the kids, put them to bed, coaching S's football team, etc.
Ask the same questions....get the same answers.
The things you're bringing up are symptoms indicative of an underlying condition. Does everybody experience the flu the same way, to the same degree? Of course not. Some get body aches and fever, some only fever, etc., etc., etc. And never mind that there are different strains...
Just like no two people are exactly alike, no two MLCs are exactly alike. Similar? Yes. Exact? No.
Your H may or may not have all the symptoms because he may or may not have all the baggage that the other MLCers do.
Whether he boards with 50 steamer trunks, or only a small carry on doesn't really matter...he's punched his ticket on the MLC crazy train, and only he can decide where he gets off.
If you are still doubting this, Hope, ask yourself a simple question.....
Have you or anybody else noticed changes in his ability to deal with the world rationally?
I think we both know the answer to this.
