I will make one point though don’t ever just give in to your W because she needs to respect you. If you just give in you lose any respect you had.
I'm not quite sure where I gave in to my W in this situation. I'm know I have numerous times in the past. I'm a work in progress. If you think I gave in to her please let me know.
I want to offer my opinion here on this...
Respect is like forgiveness...
No one NEEDS to forgive us, nor do "they NEED" to respect us... it is their choice to do either...
Both forgiveness AND respect are gifts we FIRST should give to ourselves... If we choose to forgive and respect others... then we are on a good path... we giving others permission to forgive and respect us, by first giving it to ourselves...
