Thanks Zelda. I don't like it much either. I a better man then when I started this...for sure. I don't think it enough, I have more work to do in the codependency department before all is said and done, no matter what the outcome...that has got to be addressed.

Rip, thank you again for your outlook. I keep trying to look to the future and wife keeps focusing on the past, holding that resentment so dearly...quite a matchup... Neither one of us knows what it is like to live for today. I can't control her side, I am trying to figure out how to focus on today, without expectations, with love and understanding for others needs Without expectations /silent contracts and to treat myself with more respect and joy.

Easy right? wink
