Jiji: Thanks for a little hope. I think all of us HD men would love to get the kind of recovery that suited-up got. I am not expecting this great a recovery. I wish I knew what some of those 180's were that he was talking about.
Now the othe story from Nopkins, I am not sure this one did much to encourage me (Unless I am missing something here). He basically finishes the thread with , "Hey we are working on the problem, at least the wife understands that we have a problem now". I have heard other HD men say kind of the same thing. I know the #1 goal is to get the LD spouse to actually UNDERSTAND there is a problem. This is no small feat in itself. But the #2 goal is to work the issue. The #3 goal is to RESOLVE the issue. So far, Suited-up appears to be the only guy I have seen that actually gets to the resolve stage.
Thanks Jiji, Suited-up shows me that I can always DREAM of what could be, and Nopkins at least can encourage me to keep trying. Now if I could only get my wife to goal #1, understanding that there is a SEVERE problem.
