CS, I'll be honest that when I see you've responded, I get nervous

to show that we're doing fine


And this is what I expected. Now this is only my VHO, but, I think you need to back off on "showing her" anything.

Just step back and think, with out her in the picture, who you are, and the kind of guy you are/want to be. Without showing her anything.

As for anger towards me at going dark, I don't know. It may be frustration that she's not controlling the sitch, anger at herself for potentially losing me or who knows. Insights?


Well, it has been said here that anger is not the opposite of love. The opposite of love is indifference.

So anger is something. I am not saying it is necessarily a positive, but I also do not see it as a negative (as a result of going dark, obviously her being angry at you because you are just a dick, well that is something else).

No, it's not. But that's how it feels from time to time.


The thing about games. They get tiring. They get boring. And they can wear you out.

Simply be the man.

The whole burden of the "game" goes away. Life becomes much simpler.
