I guess it's part of the process...but it's interesting that we work so hard at making all these changes. Changes that do make us better people...but then, we start to question ourselves.
I totally understand the sarcasm thing. I work with teens all day...and "funny" sarcasm often works well with them...but I can see how it doesn't work the same in a marriage.
Sorry you are back to crying....I'm sure I'll cycle back to that, eventually. Seems like we cycle as much as our MLCers do!
I think the "limbo" thing is one of the hardest things we go through. Just the not knowing for sure what to do/say.... or NOT do/say...it wears us out!
And, yes, I do feel pretty good about the changes that I'm making. I feel like I am making them for myself...just comments of others (like my mom) can cause me to doubt myself and why I'm doing all this.
