I wanted to post a story that made me feel good this weekend. I visited my brother and his family this past weekend. They took me and D13 to a neighbor's 40th birthday party. At the party I was talking to the hostess about my sitch. The same thing happened to her when she was 13. Mom walked out to be w/a man from their church. She said that her Dad went to pieces and spoke badly of Mom.
I told her about what I've learned from DB'ing and the other books I've read, she said I was heroic. YIKES! I must not have told her enough about the back-sliding I've done. Anyway to hear about the sitch from the D13 point of view really helped me suck up some of the feelings that I've had. Some days it is difficult not to unleash in front of the D's, but I still realize that the D's need a healthy relationship w/WAW regardless of WAW's feelings.
Thanks to all the DB heroes out there who pick each other up each day.
