So, the difficulty is in realizing that a large part of my M was really just a lie. That's being a bit over the top, but it's true.
Wow, I was thinking this same thing this weekend, and I even (inappropriately, I know, so put away the 2x4's) told this to stbxw when talking with her this past weekend.
I think that we also were untrue to ourselves a bit also, so we are not without blame, it just seems to suck more when you realize it from both sides.
Certainly from my "Nice Guy" traits, that is true. Now trying not to beat myself up over it so much, and work on changing for the better..
