The distractions prevent him from looking deeper




what a valid point! but of course one that can be argued. As we now know (or at least should) not all people are created equal. In other words...though I could not survive in a life of distractions never affording myslef to look at myself or others a bit deeper than the surface some can only thrive in such an environment and think those of us that do look beyond the surface are too philosophical or just...well...nuts.

Of course there are extremes of each side ( I tend to think h and I are at opposite ends of this realm though I've tried to be a bit more of a surface dwellar he has not tried to delve deeper) it is possible to find a common ground.

something typical has just happend with h.

we have not been connecting...a distance has been growing...I keep quiet and go about my business doing my best to not let my frustrations show but eventually there are too many examples of incompatability and lack of same pagedness thrown in my face that I burst.

a confrontation occurs where I state these feelings...

a further gap seems to be created...more distance and then

h leaves a message on the phone suggesting we (I assume the kids and us) go out do dinner tonight...but alas within the message he realizes tonight wont work becuase 1. I have book club 2. he's working with the crew and will therefore be dirty...so suggest the possibility of tommorow night.

Of course this should be looked at as a positive but for me it's just another example of things that make me say...wtf?

no words? no admitted recognition of the problem? no long term solution to the problem? just a quick let's all go out to dinner fix?

No I'm not saying "too little to late" I'm saying wtf is this?
