Steady thank you for the advice. My jealousy is a deep rooted issue from my childhood. i was attending counseling for it before i had to deploy, and will continue to do so when I return home.

I know I need to detach, and I have done a fairly decent job at it. However, it's difficult when you have children to talk to and you're deployed. I only talk to her when she calls me, except for my slip up the other day.

I have had revelations the last few days on what I need to work on with myself. I've fixed allot of my flaws, but some take more time than others.

I really do look forward to going home and standing on my own two feet. it's not something I planned or wanted to do, but I have no choice but to do so. I know I can do it, but I've never had to, and I invite the challenge.

I will take the time to read those posts and your sitch. I'm still waiting for my copy of DR to arrive, and I will read it more than once.
