Two roads diverged in a yellow wood...

Hi CP! I was wondering where Hwy went, but I think I found you.

I just caught up on your sitch and am sorry you are having such a hard time. I am actually surprised how calm I have been able to remain around my H as well - in the past I would have yelled and screamed and cried. Which would have gotten me nowhere!

I know what you mean about having your H nitpick things you do (mine doesn't seem quite as bad as yours does in that aspect but it's still really frustrating). And my H is also notorious for his bad moods. I just stopped talking to him when he's in one (not cold shoulder, but just don't initiate any talking) and that seems to help. I can tell some small differences in the way my H and I interact since I've been DBing (5 weeks now), so even though it is hard for me to keep at it sometimes, I know I can at least say I tried everything regardless of how this all ends! Best of luck to you! PMA, PMA, PMA!!!
