I think you two are at the point of recognizing that you are in gridlock, but you don't know how to get out. That's why you are both so uncomfortable right now.





You're right. We are in gridlock bigtime. Sometimes it seems that we are getting past it and then...bam...right back there. One thing that I could not figure out in all of these books is exactly what breaks the gridlock. I was under the impression that the underlying problems must be completely worked out before gridlock is broken. Is this true?

I go out with my wife once or twice a week. It does seem to ease the tension for a few hours. There's only so much of it I can tolerate though. She's the HD socializer.

I want the gridlock to be broken when we're out to lunch together or alone together at home. That seems to be when the tension is nearly unbearable.

What I wouldn't give to break that gridlock.....
