Quote: I'd have an attitude that this is good, but it isn't enough, I want more, he doesn't do .... Fill in the blanks! I don't know when my mentality shifted away from that and came to accept things as they are, and be happy with what I have, but I'm reaching that stage
You must have read my mind!! My biggest fill in the blank is the lack of affection. Until the bomb I was given so much affection and now that I only get a hug it is killing me. It's a fine line b/n accepting what I have and wondering if I am settling for crumbs from H. Do you know what I mean?
Mooka, So glad you are doing so well.
Quote: But when we finally shift our attitude to accept what we have.....not wanting more RIGHT NOW and wanting it all FIXED right now....just taking what we get from our H's and reinforcing what works....letting time heal, taking care of ourselves....letting our H's figure themselves out....being lovingly distant....CONFIDENT...and loving our kidlets and those around us. Then....over time....a long time.....they may get over the "hump".....
More wise words that I always need to hear.
Thanks to everyone for their replies. I always appreciate it so much. I need to spend more time on the board catching up with everyone else.
Well, my son is screaming/crying right now because he wants to go to disney.com. He just had his tonsils out today. He did very well. I better run.
