Thanks Gnosis for dropping in on my thread again. Your insight into the fear issue has been very helpful for me. I was holding back on true DBing because I was afraid of what I might lose. In reality, I have already lost it.
Wife just called me at work to see what was going on this evening. She also sent me an email first thing this morning about her day. I responded to both, but made sure that I focused only on her and did not mention anything related to me. Also made sure that I simply listened and acknowledged, tried not to offer any solutions. I need to work on this part, as I feel that I always need to provide her with some form of solution.
Tonight I will focus on the kids and getting a few more things done around the house.
