Wow, lots of good insight her, ladies! I can totally relate to being afraid of anything you might say or do that might be wrong. I feel like I am trying so hard to be what I think h wants me to be. And, I suck at acting, cannot hide my emotions.

Betsey, I'm proud of you too for seriously giving it your best effort. I know mine has been so half-assed and so sporadic...I admire you. I can see how you would be at your sh!t or get off the pot state. That is quite a while to be in limbo.

But, like the others, I do see positives too. It's hard to determine just how much you can give, and give, and keep giving. You've accepted responsibility, you've changed, yes, it will take Mr. W a while to believe it, but in the meantime, things ain't easy...

I hope your bob barker rubs off on me soon b/c i really need some of it!

but, I know too, that my h walks on eggshells too b/c he doesn't know what is going to set me off. Well, it's usually the same things over and over. bleh...
