New LBS dealing with WW

[joejoe1]

Joe,

That's great to hear to with so much confidence. You son absolutely needs to see his father strong and confident.

I think kind and caring go hand and hand. So you can still be caring but not run behind her Every time she needs help. I will give you an example. Since I have been on here some WWs have had to go to the hospital. If your W needs to go to the hospital, pls take her. On the other hand if she needs help with things she can do on her own let her.

IMO not being supportive will come off like you being a jerk. You can be supportive and not pursue and give off you being up her butt. For example,she says she's going to the gym and has been toning up. You can say looks like you been putting in some hard work at the gym. Or she wants to go back to school, you can say, you will do good when you go back to school.

It's detaching lovingly.
