I can relate. I think some of the time it was altruistic...but I think you are right- it made ME feel good to do those things. I never thought of it as a control thing...but perhaps you are right. I need to chew on that for awhile.

What was it that you got in return from your H?

Grit- as always...I need to sit with your posts. Read. Reread. think. Reread. think. Reread.
