I think you touched on something that probably the women feel a bit more than then men. We do want them to tell us it will all be ok. Isn't that what men are supposed to do? Fix things and make it better?
As women of this generation, we want to believe that we don't NEED men like women in the past did. We have our legal rights, to vote, own property, etc... Almost equal pay, and we see women all over the place living single lives and thriving.
But, I do believe that we still have that underlying desire to be taken care of. To be able to expect our H's to do that. Be strong, be the head of the house. It hurts and is scary when that goes away. For me it was...
Sorry to my male friends for that little look into the thoughts of a woman...You guys are still all wonderful.
Anyway, TF, yes lots of us have lost our focus lately. I think we get to a good place and it is easy to let it slip just a bit.
Mach says habits are harder to break than addictions and I know he is right.
So go easy on yourself, mind yourself, and take the next forward step.
