Thank you for taking it so well. I hate to see men live in fear of how their W will react, or scared to put any space between them. LBH's seem to have that in common. Their fear causes them to cling tighter, and they hurt themselves, in the end.
In all honesty I am nervous at what the W's reaction will be to my answer to her complaint. But it is what I feel is right about our future as D'd co-parents. We need to be equal in the eyes of the law.
I need to stand up for this belief and face whatever repercussions come my way.
One of the self help books I read said that a man needs to live on the edge of his fear. I have not done this. Sending the response will be the first step towards that.
I need to shift my focus on books and education from M books to how to regain my manliness books. Work on me for me.
