Quote: I've had to work hard on the emotion part and just have to feel my way through. As far as finding out whether it's worth, it beats feeling emotionally dead or cut off from others.
I realize that, Scott, but I think you missed my point. YOU took the initiative, your wife did not do it for you. If she does not or cannot appreciate your efforts and attempts, at the very least, then she is the worst kind of schmuck.
Your original point to me was to say how hard it is for men to express their emotions, and you said that you thought you were a bit like my H, at least in the emotional connection part, as it is an area that completely befuddles you.
My point to you: But you know it, and you are trying to do something about it.
It was a left-handed compliment to be sure... but I'd say you are ahead of the curve where my H is concerned.
