"I keep delaying posting to you because I want to give you the kind of line-by-line analysis that you give folks. But I'll be waiting forever, because that isn't who I am, in general. I'm just going to speak to you from my heart."
I don't want you to go line by line. That is what I do. Honestly at this point I don't care what anyone says. Just say something. I don't expect people to respond to me the way I post. I just expect "something".
"OK I finally get it. This means see above. Nothing below this."
Sarcasm.. FB? I did not know you had it in you. I did LOL a bit at it. At the same time I am really sure that DBmod did not mean it that way. So I will post.
"This is the way it often goes after someone has 'won'/become successful. You just haven't had your heart filled. In fact NEITHER of you are getting your heart filled. That's some serious, REALLY hard work and at the heart of DBing."
This I agree with to a point. The main reason I question it is that.. when do "we" expect more from the other person. Me and my wife are not that far "off" from the goal. She just has it in her mind that I am really far off. She can't "see" beyond that. She keeps saying she wants me to get some balls. But I will assure you if I do that.. I will get a bi7ch* response. As an example today.. we have these under cabinet lights. There are some wires hanging down. They have been that way for a while. It is (was) a 30 min job. But yesterday it became important. I tried with the tools I had.. and they were not enough. I needed better ones. I told her exactly that. Today I got the task assigned to me again. When I questioned whether that was the best task to be focused on.. I got the "if you don't want to talk about it speech". I told her I was not trying to be a a$$ but I just thought her time could be better spent elsewhere. So.. long story short.. I got the tool and finished the job. She is still not happy with me. I did not even get a thank you. As a side note.. in C the conversation went to a point where she did compliment me on my actions. I being me.. did not hear it. The C even pointed out that I did not respond to it. He asked me why I did not. My answer was.. "cause that is what I do. I fix things." I do it at work.. I do it at home. Neither place is somewhere I am "happy".
So.. where do I change things SG?
I did read it all.. but to me this is where I need to focus. It is the day to day stuff that seems to be screwing me up. I may come back to your post. But for now I just want to see what people have to say.
