on the phone with WAW today i stated how important family was to me and she scoffed and made a disparaging remark about my immediate family
i also made the mistake of telling her I loved her on the phone and she said "i had a funny way of showing it".
Poschan, you broke two of the 37 rules intended to be a guide in directing you what to do and not do. I am not calling you on the carpet about it. You are a grown man! I am just curious as to why you continue doing the very things we have said works against you.
Being a WW, I think I have a pretty good idea how these two statements were seen by your W. my question is, what expectation were you seeking in both statements? And, you did have expectations............so be honest and say what was in your heart.
I don't mean to sound pushy by asking this question, have you read my threads on help for the newcomer LBH with a WW?
It is not about what you feel should work in your M. It is about doing the work that gets the right results. Do what works!
