Finding my way - part 4

[Maybell]

For myself... Sometimes I feel that as hard as I *want* to make certain changes and I succeed in making them with my kids and other people, with him I just find myself slipping backwards before I even realize where I am. It's so frustrating, and makes me wonder if he & I could succeed if he got his head around it. If I have these doubts, and I know what's at stake and that I actually believe it's worth the effort, how much more hopeless must it look to the person whose instinct was to walk?

My IC has talked about emotional intelligence. I'm beginning to feel that's next on my reading list. For myself.

Sending warmth, ladies. I feel blessed to know you anonymously.
