RH..it was something my DB coach said about men wanting us to think they are "just it" and they love being experts at something, so I use the golf to allow him to do this. I know very little about it so he can and does give me plenty of advice. It can get a bit much but hey I figure..if I was just starting to go out with him..I would be probably (and probably did) hanging off every word he said. Glad its helpful to you to share this bit of advice.

TVS ..what I liked best was that I went to my room "first". I gave H no opportunity to think I would be swooning at his feet. It made me feel like I was in control and not at the mercy of "what is he going to do next". I can't afford to get excited anyway. H has done this divorce thing to me many times over the last 12 months. This time if we get through this it has to be done right. I was guilty of all the things we all do previously and I wish I had known better in the past, I might have avoided this or at least made it less painful. Although with an MLC'er its hard to know. Take care of yourself TVS and thanks for your valuable comments. You are an amazing lady.
