I've been having a tough time these last few days. Although I present only a positive face towards my, let's face it, STBXW, I am reeling on the inside. I am trying to keep Michele's advice in min and I always ask myself whether what I am about to do will drive my wife away or bring her closer. Sometimes she seems willing to talk, but I've learned now not to --EVER -- bring up R talk, because it shuts her down like ripping the plug out of the wall of a Donkey Kong machine (sorry, I'm a child of the 80s). She seemed almost excited after we left the therapist. She even asked me for a hug, and even though I initially told her that was a bad ide, I quickly relented. Hey, it's a hug from the woman I love! Maybe the last. But I won't let her see that it's bothering me. Like the AA people say 1DAAT.
