Thank you Jo, that was very sweet. Are you proposing? he he
Actually I was thinking of seeing if Maria Bello from that show is available. She's my age. Even has that lucky 18th of the month going on. I wonder what her e-mail address is?

These are some wise words a friend wrote me. Take from them what you want.
Quote: You mention that you thought that at this point you would be able to pull your weight in a relationship with your wife. See that's just if Wes, I don't think that a good relationship needs to take that much work. Oh it's work, but work that you want to to do and have a choice in doing. With my husband I was running in circles trying to make him happy. I thought that that was my job too, and that's so draining. He'd tell me he didn't like something or something was wrong, so I'd change that. Then it would be something else, so I'd change that, until it finally hit me that it would always be something because he just wasn't a happy person. Now he's not happy and it has absolutely nothing to do with me. A healthy relationship should add to our person, not take away from us. There are many days when this still makes me sad, the difference is that I now know that I can do nothing to make him like himself, only he can do that. The same can be said for your wife I'm sure.
Don't you want to be able to come home to someone who would be your soft place to fall? I do. I want someone who makes me want to be the best person that I can be, not a different person than I am. I think if we're smart, and honest and don't make the same mistakes, we can have all that and more. Life is way too short to settle

personally I think those are very wise words. In deciding to end my marriage I did a lot of soul searching and #1 learned a lot about myself and #2 figured out that I need to be with someone who will love ME unconditionally and someone who I really want to come home to. Right now I don't have that, but I will be looking soon.
I know you are Bruce.....Just come out and admit it.....I cant imagine how you have the energy to maintain two threads at the same time Bruce...One for you and one for old Wes, huh? I know you missed old Wes when he decided to leave the forum and you are trying to keep his spirit alive by running a thread for him under the pseudonym of Joe_negativity. But we all know that it's you, Bruce. Your postings lately have been too logical and pointed (like your mechanical pencil) to keep this charade up any longer....

The 3 laws of DBing:
1. PMA is critical to DBing.
2. Since drop in WAW's PMA leads to drop in LBS's PMA and vice-versa detachment is critical.
3. Validate to raise WAW's PMA and GAL to raise LBS's.
