25 - if the vm comment was a "I haven't listened YET' I would feel fine about that. But not listening to VM related to our D isn't that cool and then telling me that and just leaving it like that, what did he expect me to say?

- thanks for the tip about character flaws. YES! I'll have to do that. Big one to work on. Thank you.

- thanks for the feedback on DBing. I think what I did in that note back to him was not so much complain as RESPOND - not REACT - so different for me. and I revised it three times to take out any potential language that could be construed as a leading question or attack or cornering - things like "Would you be willing to consider doing, a or b" "What should I feel when you do e, g" "How can we better do this or that." It was really different for me and felt great.

- and on the sleep stuff, still trying to figure out why she sleeps for exBF but not for me - even though we do the same stuff around bedtime
