Is this piecing?

[dday101798]

But I still feel totally blamed for any and all problems in our relationship. I only heard H taking responsibility for not drawing a line with me sooner.

Guess that is the WAS script? Guess that is why piecing is so hard? .

Hi Hope, sorry I havent' had a chance until now to catch up with you, nor read LR's response above, but Im' sure it's a booster as well.

I'm going to go on a limb here and say that since your H has some pretty significant internal issues of his own, he's probably going to be slower to adapt to an anology of a WAS that I've come up with:

You have kids right?

Remeber when those kids got to about 3ish? (must their ages are in your sig)

Remember what their mindset was after a long hard day shopping and running around was? They saw one thing in that store that just grabbed them and it was ALL ABOUT THEM, when you tried to rationalize it was either too much, they didn't need it, whatever, no matter what you tried to say, they had a temper tantrum because this was a time for them in their mind.

And I think that's what happens with the WAS and they lose sight of rationalization and it's all about them. So of course, it's script and he's going to spew out all the negative junk about you that "is the only thin gwrong with M". The more he confesses to of his own, the closer you'll be getting on a steady path.
