I appreciate that. I am not one for giving much advice, (too new here), I really just want to pass along what is working for me and share some of my thoughts.
I am coping as best as I can under the circumstances. It is hard to really understand what motivates the WAS. I think you are handling things well.
We just need to nurture ourselves in any way we can, and consider the WAS as a second priority. It's all about US now.
Thanks for being there and just keep doing what works for you.
All the Best~
Yeah trying to figure out their minds will drive you nuts.
I'm pretty new too, I really value everyone's threads though, some get it and do it, others fight it, and some just are "naturals". I lurk all over the place here. Like Robx said there are many good people here with a lot of experience, "you need to soak up the knowledge like a sponge". No one has the EXACT same sitch, but the knowledge here can apply to ALL.
You are one of the people who gets it, but everyone gets weak with dealing with this crap over and over. You are on the right path, just be the BEST Susan you can be....and when you can't, come here and get a 2x4 lol
