Ganb8te - I read your posts with great interest. Is there a forum for WAHs?

I am so relieved to have found this community. So much of the searching I did before would bring me to articles for men about emotionally connecting with wives and a lot of outdated gender notions that just didn't work for my situation.

I'm going to look for the validation cheat sheet. I hate to say this, but I think I've got to book learn this stuff and treat it like a new hobby before it's even going to be close to 2nd nature.

But hey, on the bright side not eating has got be back into the jeans I wore in college. Neighbor told me I had great legs yesterday in one of the most awkward encounters ever. Silver linings everywhere.
