I love that book; Sassy let me borrow it. I read the same thing about male distancers and I wonder if that is what my H. is doing right now, also. The book is excellent, and I plan to re-read some of it this weekend. Imdi, when I’m feeling really, really bad I call a pastor friend of my family and he is also a professional marriage counselor. It’s pretty nice, the free advice. I talked to him last night and told him the latest about my situation. He talked to me for a long time and the advice he gave me was to stay in the boat during the storm. He told me a story that had to do with this, and he asked me if I understood; I told him I did. And so I’m passing this advice onto you, because I think you need it today. Just stay in the boat and ride out your own storm. That is all we can do. If we give up then there is no hope left. Hugs, Hope
Most of us really marry only once. First love endures, even unto our dying day. And we never really divorce.
