It's those learnings that we take away from this situation that are so valuable. I had read some R books before this to try improve my knowledge but infinetly more since. I am glad you see that.
Some people say F that and move on at the first hurdle, unfortunately to their next doomed R. If nothing else I want to learn enough from this to prepare my sons for M. I will formulate my learnings and pass them on. My eldest is 10 so I have time. I hope before then to be able to show him how a good couple interact.
