The love I have for my daughter has been amazing to me, and as bad as these last 9 months have been, it has made me a better father. I do know that my d loves me very much. My w has always loved me, and I realize that she still does, and I still love her, I just have to show it differently now like standing for my m. You said if your afraid to show the love that takes strategy. One thing I said to my w at the beginning of the separation was just that, I was afraid, but I didn't know why. I told her that there were times she would be getting dressed for work and I would be lying in bed watching her, and I wanted to tell her how beautiful she was, but I couldn't. I had no problem doing the opposite, being critical. I have been feeling better these last few days as if I am actually getting somewhere good. I do have a lot of love, its just such a big boulder blocking it, but with help from people like you it will be moved.
