Karen, At least he finds the layoffs frustrating. I get no indication whatsoever, other than a verbal "yes, I do miss it" from MrsGGB. We had a long discussion again last night about me needing to see some signs of her wanting me, and she feeling inadequate and that nothing she does is enough. We haven't ML in over 3 weeks, and she hasn't shown even the smallest sign that she misses it or looks forward to it. I'd feel better if she even said she felt frustrated by the layoff instead of feeling frustrated trying to please me. It is though anything sexual between us is only to keep me happy, which is not at all satisfying. I was more or less ok with my recent LDness, but after the talk last night it is starting to sink in that this is just the way it is and nothing is going to change it. Please pass the prozac.
