Well hope you are having a good day off and GALing.
Yeah, I did a quick check and the only enough blood reference is quickly highlighted on my favourite search engine.

Good. So, how do you think that have worked? How can you actually integrate that in your life, even if not with your W, then with other people in your life, perhaps even in your work.

Are you suggesting that i try and do this together with W? Because that is very unlikely to happen at the moment....sadly.
Yeah, certainly with a M that is seriously on the rocks, this exercise can almost be painful for both parties. For the LBS because it reminds them of why they want to stay M and for the WAS because it reminds them that they can't think of anything good.
Actually, it's not that the WAS can't, they don't want to, because then it's painful for them because they don't want to think about what they'll miss or that perhaps, they're making a horrible mistake.
Nor does the WAS want to hear about what the LBS loves about them, because the WAS will possibly feel like the LBS is desperate, lying, or the WAS will otherwise feel pressured.
Anyhow, I don't think that you should be doing that exercise with your W. I mentioned it because your posts were sounding a little aloof as though you weren't sure why you would want to M your W.
So rather, is it possible you are actually stuffing your feelings rather than embracing them?
