An IC once told me that one of the advantages of in-person IC is that it's harder for a person to ignore or run from difficult questions. I bet it was hard hearing that we believed you were speaking to your partner as if they were a child to be corrected. That advice was offered with love and the hope that you can make changes and have a healthy relationship. Time's ticking on finding a fulfilling relationship with her. We all have our demons to battle--wishing you luck with yours, and hoping you had a Happy Halloween, with lots of great kiddo time!
