Why is that so powerful? I think about if we D and if she remained single I could deal with that much better.
Is is that I think I failed? Is it rejection? Is it control/possession? Is it insecurity?
God there is nothing that comes close to that fear, and this sounds bad, really bad... but I think I could handle her death easier than her remarrying.

First things first. I would cost waaaayyyyyy more than Mach. Just sayin. LOL!
I am going to hear from him for that but he dont scare me none. Hee hee.
J, I have to tell you how strong I think you are for sharing those honest thoughts. Really amazing.
The thing is this. You might not be happy, but, you would be ok.
Here's the thing about fear. If you think about it, and feed into it, it owns you. But if you look it straight in the eye and tell it you will be ok, it loses its power. Because it's true ,you wouldnt die, right?
I think that your fear lies in all of the things you said. Fear of failure, insecurity, etc. Know how I know? Because I had the same fears. Still do with some things.
As far as fear of failure. I felt that for a long time. But then I realized there are two people in a marriage and each bring all kinds of things to it. And sometimes, it just isnt possible for it to work. Didnt mean I failed. It just what was. Could we have both done better? Yes. But I did the best I could with what I knew. And as long as I really believed that, I didnt fail.
The thing is this. You might not be happy, but, you would be ok.
Thanks for your honesty. For me that is a very depressing realization. That is how I feel now :-(
