AGreed! Why is it hard to remember things as they really are? Instead of how they once were, or how we hope they will be,etc?

You are right. I do not want to have to fight for any respect or love. I am done with that. H is responding well for the moment from my pullback, so I highly recommend the same. Remember, Laura, you were there months ago encouraging me to "go dark". IT's taken me a while, but you and everyone else here was right =- I have more peace than I thought possible and look forward to a lot more.

Get your H to move out and see the difference in your peace of mind!!!!!!
