Thanks, Bluestar! I agree - a long way to go still. I do like seeing some progress though. It's encouraging. It's so strange that they can talk to their D's about this stuff but don't see the need to talk to their wives. I guess it's because they don't want us to "think everything's OK when it's not." ???
Ups and downs I can handle as long as H stays within the set boundaries!
My biggest problem, quite frankly, is what to do about sex. Part of me says he needs to be totally committed to the M or we shouldn't be having it. However - I'm human - and I like it, and have succumbed a time or two recently because he is acting more like a husband should. I can't decide if I'm being weak and allowing cake eating or if it maybe helps, because sex is obviously a way in which a husband and wife connect. Having said that, I know a man can just have sex and it's just sex - not emotional - like it is for us women. However, he did say that it meant something to him. (That it wasn't just sex.)
I'm trying so hard to be "tough, but loving" I don't want to be weak and lose respect.
