Myrrh, sweetie...maybe the answering machine couldn't receive messages from pumpkins...'cause I know that your phone happened to turn into a pumpkin last night, right...
I read something last night in the ADD answers book (my secondary self-help drug of choice right now) that I think might bring you a little peace. ADD people act impulsively in the moment. The way their minds work is so quick and impulsive that they don't think of the consequences of their actions and they do not even recall (at this time of impulsivity) what the consequences were the last time they made this choice. This is frustrating for their partners, because no matter what consequence we bring down, the ADD person will continue their impulsive behavior. Think about how you could adjust your partner's behavior without issuing a consequence. A consequence will be forgotten and take away from your partner's self worth, not to mention only frustrate you more. IE don’t bother screaming at him when he comes home late or doesn’t call…because it won’t change damn thing! That message goes out to both of us!
Tell me WHY you want a divorce. Remember the rule...can't use anything in the phrase "I want a divorce because ___ " that you have not completely and totally considered.
