Thank-you, Lass. It's amazing how you can get more sympathy and caring over the Internet than from the person whom you've given you life to.
I know my W has demons.
She says that her self-image is rapidly improving and that's why she feels confident in denying me. She's lost probably 15 lbs and has started dressing with more style. Her IQ is higher than mine and she knows it.
She's an Adult Child of an Alcoholic (ACoA). Perhaps she figures it's her turn to dominate and control and the less she sympathises with me the easier it is. Maybe the narcissism of her father has rubbed off on her.
Don't get sucked into this... Like someone could figure out 25 years of marriage within a day from hearing only one side.
I do like to think of women who love to love their husbands. My mother was one such person and, from what I later heard from my sister, she was very unhappy when she became too sick to have sex. Today would have been their 54th anniversary.
