Just saying hello.

...What strikes me when I read your posts is something I wish I had learned or better controlled earlier on: Acting "As If". Controlling my emotions in my spouse's presence and acting "As If" I am going to be just fine no matter what she did......Keep posting and read other thread's. (((hug)))

Thank you so much for posting, RealityTrip. I have really been trying to do this since my wife announced she had taken steps to become separated a little over a week ago. It has been the only way that i have been able to cope with interacting with her.

Even so, it is very hard acting "as if" I will be OK when i feel so desolate. How did acting "as if" help you? Did it improve the interactions that you had with your partner? The self control part is not easy either.

Thanks
