jbnati, these are definitely my favourite smilies ----> For obvious reasons.
And yes, "believe none of what they say and half of what they do" is obviously something I need to have ironed on one of his T-shirts. I think I'm finally learning to stop reacting to him ,even when he's nice because clearly the Crazy Train is still speeding down the tracks.
Psych77, the "kissing him on the nose" suggestion made me laugh but I see your point. I do have to try something to change our dynamic. Although, right now, we're not even fighting or disagreeing over anything because I'm too on edge. I feel like it's all up to me to keep the kid's worlds from falling apart. What a D will do to them is my biggest fear at this point. I think eventually, I would be okay but I don't want them to grow up fearing abandonment.
I also went on about my sitch a little too much on your thread today.
Michael1, thanks for stopping by and offering your thoughts. I'll have to check out your thread later today. I'm sorry you find yourself here but it's a great place to be during all this turmoil.
For obvious reasons.
