Sounds like you mostly had a positive weekend GH, you're dealing with those range of emotions that I also, and I imagine everyone else on this board, has come to know. But it seems to me that you are on the right path and doing the right things. Keep up the good work!
Quote: if everything else fails, remember this: by being mad, controlling, demanding, hostile and interrogative, you're directly helping the OM to enjoy R with your W. You're his best friend the way it looks, m?
Firedragon, nothing can be more true than this! This is something, at least for me, that I should print out and paste somewhere so I can look at it everytime I get into those moods. My W has actually come out and told me that the more I talk that way, the more I push her away. Yeah, not so attractive to live with.
One of the maddening things about this whole scheme, and I think it was something you were alluding to GH, is that, at least in my mind, its not as though we're asking for everything to be perfect, but at least give up the OM and give it a try. Not so much to ask in my opinion. And the truth is, at some point, they WILL have to make a choice....its not as though they can continue to do this forever. At some point, someone is going to reach the end of his/her rope.
