Gordie #15: closing the cake shop

[Gordie]

...but whatever you do, do not turn that anger on your wife or anyone else.

Gordie, she really doesn't understand why you don't want to have sex w/her. She's in the mental age of 15/16 and kids switch off on partners and they just think it's "sex" and not "doing it out of love". Her empathy chip is still cracked and I know she's driving you nuts mentioning this topic over and over to you.

I do agree...you need some time away from her and the situation. Can you arrange to stay w/a friend for a day or two? YOU need some time, space and peace in order to help you rebuild your patience and strength.

Job, thank you. I am well trained not to take my anger out physically against anyone...especially women, so don't worry about that one. Interesting what you say about sex. When I do say no, she does look more confused than rejected. Lastly, I am writing this from a friend's place right now, so I am taking your advice to heart!
