TS2 - Thank you for your posts - they are helping us all. As Zig said - you have put in a very practical and clear example, a universal dynamic of marriages.

He even told me afterwards - "I realize I cannot not make you happy and am tired of trying."
The thing is that I never expected him to make me happy, but I also never felt like he understood what I was going through or felt either. Sounds familiar, right?
Bug - sorry for the hijack. (((LAbug)))
