Countrystrong Thanks for the LONG list of activities. As I had said before with less than a month before my move it's a little disheartening to get most of those started. I did on the other hand pick up a cable I needed to re-start learning how to play the guitar my W was very skeptical, but who cares right?!
As for me going WAS well I feel it sometimes, I just try to funnel that negative energy to do positive things like remind myself that I deserve respect.
I'm trying to find that balance between reinforcing her good loving behavior, and discouraging her bad ones. Just today there was a little instance I think I handled well. In the end she came to me and apologized. That's kinda rare around here and it's nice to see that she is increasingly owning up to her own ugly behavior. Hopefully this will lead to reductions too. It definitely is a change from when I used to end up getting blamed for everything.
Overall I really do feel that we are making progress in all areas except when it comes to ml, but as young at heart said that area comes last and can only be approached once everything else is in order.
Not to quibble, b/c I LOVE this post of yours, but ML can assist many couples in connecting. I KNOW for you guys that is not in the equation yet, but for many couples, ML helps the r and doesn't come AFTER everything else but is like, a "lubricant" for everything else. hmm how else to word this...I mean that you shouldn't have to have all the stars in alignment to be able to show your love physically. That's all. Great post GB, good luck
