Quote: one point Michele made was that marriage is like a seesaw, the more you do in one area the less your spouse will do there.
You have that right IHJ. It happens to me. The more I cook or do R work, the more BB just seems happy to coast along. I quit cooking almost all the meals and BB picked up the slack and seems to be happier she is making things her way.
Quote: I have been more responsible to myself during the scheduled encounters, making sure I feel satisfied, instead of playing the martyr ( which I did yrs ago). Again, to my H's credit, he is coming forward to ask me how I am feeling and showing more interest/concern, which is nice.
InherJourney, That statement sounded like some of the progress we all want or wanted at one time. Congratulations to "both" of you for the win, win position you have reached to date.
