This forums the best! Just when I was feeling a little down I log in, read some of the encouraging comments and I now feel great!

PS - From the east coast, 3 hours from the border. Im doing my best to keep a PMA when im at her place. All my attention is on the kids. I do ask how the boys were while im not there but not much of a reply. Getting a tougher skin but it still hurts. Newby threads will be a great idea, I feel a need to help give back.

RealityTrip – I need to stop the mindreading, its just so hard when she is so quiet. “All ice eventually melts when greeted with warmth my friend” That’s a great statement that I will continue to honor.

AS – That book title came up a few times, I have been known as a “nice guy”. I do realize I seek validation from people. Deep down I believe its her attitude and not what im currently doing to trigger it. If thats how she feels towards me, all I can do is be the bright sun in our broken family unit & hopefully see the icy shell melt from her. I’ll start to be more assertive in my communications with her, maybe gain some respect that way.
