I met with chuck, and he gave me some great, helpful tips on GAL, enforcing a schedule, and challenging her core beliefs about me. It was good to hear someone specifically address my issues without being vindictive (which I realized I've been struggling with)
downhub - is there anything you can share about how you challenged your W's core beliefs about you? I am facing the same issues with my WW. She spews back so much hate about our 25 years of marriage to me: she never was in love with me, i never saw or valued her, i always shamed her. blah blah blah. It hurt so much at first but now I don't believe any of it. The problem is that any time we get into any type of conversation this stuff comes up again and again. It is a real barrier to our moving through any discussions. It would be helpful to challenge her in this. I've tried validating to an extent and its just not working.
Anyone else have advise?
