The Hardest Part of Piecing

[MynameisMZ]

Thanks Freebird. I'm doing well...OK...things have been up and down as we both work on the real changes we need to make in this M.

I'm past the point where I do ALL the ignoring of bad behavior. We've had some good discussions lately.

I've been feeling like I'm past the anger phase and go immediately to sadness when issues come up. Not being so angry helps me to reflect on me and how I'm going to approach it.

Example: H has the bad habit of calling me and then talking to others while he is on the phone with me. I thought he was talking to me this AM and realized someone had stepped into his office. So without saying to me, "Honey, someone just stepped in and I have to take care of this, I'll call you right back," he just starts talking to the other person, but into my ear. It's rude. I'd like to think I mean more than that.

He called me about 8 times after I just ended the call. I had appointments to attend to. We just talked about it on my break here. I was very calm and self-assured about what I wish for in our R. I'm not settling for less.
