[quote]The early stages were best dealt with this attitude: -She is a friend with issues.
Try to re-frame it like that, though she is your wife, she is a free human being, free to make her own choices, good, bad and ugly.
My other two SOPs are: -"Aloof,yet available" -STFU (they "tell" you so much more when you do this).[quote]When you first start to do things for you, it can be a wobbly wheel and timing can be "interesting". I applaud that you're doing things for you. I do. But I have to ask myself after reading your post if you did it for you or for you to get back at her? Just asking what the motivation was in the decision.
