Lately I have been saying H is in a different stage (before I knew about the stages).
I'm not going to worry to much about MLC stage's but I do want to stay educated. It was very interesting!
I would guess he's in the depressive stage, clinically depressed.
I see the change from excited to blast his ipod, tan, arrogance and mean spirit, turn to reflecting on himself, with unrealistic expectations.
Reflecting on his emptiness and endless search, doomed for failure, sadness.
He does poke his head out and say nice things about me again, but he also retreats into that tunnel again going back a stage or two.
Long road ahead!
I am not trying to make changes to get him back. Wow! I said that! I may not even like the man that comes out of the other end of this.
I don't like my H right now...I would never except his new smoking habit. He does nothing for me, (figuratively) , he does not move me, or excite me right now.
Focusing on me is an everyday learning process. Thank goodness my kids are reaching out and trying to encourage me.
My D18 is dressing me....stay home mom look, pinned back hair, no more!
The past can't be ahead of you in the future. You don't have to figure it all out, just pick a direction. What's next...I don't know but I can't wait!
