Seattle, While I know you had a bit of a setback with your DBing I dont think this was that big of a deal. I truely believe at times we have to show our true feelings and let them know what they are doing. It gives them something to think about that they can change and see why you are the way you are. If we hold in our feelings to much we are not expressing what we need and it will start to hinder our Dbing even more. You said what you had to say (to which I dont blame you) now forget it and move on. Dont make it a cheeseless tunnel. I think you were right to say it. She has to realize your feelings are hurt. Next time you see her dont bring it up, be pleasant and forgive her. Its the alien in her.
I also found out this weekend my FIL had to babysit my kids on Saturday. I am supposed to have first right to deny before someone else is allowed to watch them. Im not sure what to do. This is the second time. I think I might give her 3 strikes. I know how you feel, believe me.
Your an amazing guy and your right the chics will be swarming on you. Your sensative and warm. Cant blame the nurses. Keep your head up and dont let your W bring you down to much. I know it gets heavy at times but be strong and show her your love. I think you did great with her out to dinner. If your W is at all like mine, she says we have to start all over. Almost like when we were first dating. We need to get that friendship back before she can trust and feel love for me. So take those steps slow and be a gentleman to her like when you were first dating. Might help.??? God BLess, Eddy
