joysjoe, I don't think she's interested in being self-reflective right now. If/when she is, I like that approach.
MrBond, labug, and nit84, It isn't that I didn't believe you about how we weren't to piecing yet, it's just that l didn't want to believe it.
Going to the NFL game was a lot if fun yesterday, but she showed me more than a couple of times that she's very skittish about all this.
An easier one is that she wants me to take charge of things 100% sometimes. So all she has to do is show up. I can do that.
Harder is that she has major issues w/ my family and that I need to be more vigilant about everything with them.
So, it isn't piecing because she's not looking at her behavior at all, but it is something because she made it clear that we are trying to get this to work, just that I have the work to do.
Lots of hard work left to do.
Me: 34 W:33 T: 10 M: 6 S: 6 D: 5 BD: 5/14 Still together(ish) Not giving up: 7/14 D talk has slowed, a lot. Gradually working on things together. Still separate bedrooms. Slow and Steady wins the race.
