that is sound advice. i never thought of it like that, and it makes alot of sense to me. i do not want to ever get used to this kind of treatment. over the course of the R i guess i got used to being treated as less than. i hated it. since she left i have started to get back to being me and not worrying about her. she still knows so well how to push my buttons. at the end of the day i am the one who allows it tho. i will work on this for sure.
the best part of this horrible part of my life is the opportunity i have to grow as a man. to be the best me i can be, regardless of how she or others view me...
