For many months, I moped about wanting my life back before this all came down, but you know, that isn't the life I want back because that's the life that she was unahppy with and, to some degree, so was I (that's another story for another day).
Not wanting to hijack here...but Rob...this isn't JUST about meeting the WAS needs you know? We all have needs and wants. Putting our feelings, thoughts, needs and wants on the backburner is not very healthy either. It was when I started looking back I realized that Dave was right, I WASN'T happy...I thought I was because when I looked back all I could see was the good in the R...but in reality it wasn't all it was cracked up to be. In the end, I've moved on and am in a much happier place in my life than I have been in oh about 20yrs...
Going over to read your thread. GH, sorry for the temp hijeck but it's important that everyone know's that DB isn't about just catering to your WAS needs but realizing your own also. So to Rob, another story another day...nope...I better find something over on your thread giving me your thoughts...HUGS
