OK, new start people. I need to up the ante. I need to do more looking good, being upbeat and postive, not letting him get to the negative relationship talks he tries to bait me into. I need to show I'm doing fine without him so he doesn't feel he can treat me like crap. Love Must Be Tough!
Monday -= he's coming over to have his night with S. I am going out for a couple hours, then I'm going to come home and look good and just keep it upbeat. I got about a c+ on that today, but could have done a lot better.
Sounds like a great plan. I know it takes some effort, but just don't let him bait you into an argument. That's exactly what he wants b/c (a) that's how he communicates his unhappiness and (b) it helps him justify what he is feeling - "see, I am right to want to leave."
