Thanks Roiste for your feedback. I do have a tendency to let his moods dictate mine, and am in the process of reading CDNM yet again.
I guess I didn't see his mood swings as a positive thing, but conflict for him is good. It's so hard to separate friendly versus friend after so many years together, but I will work on it.
Talk more tonight as I have to go to work.
Thanks again, E
