This is my most important goal right now. It truly is. I don't know what I'm looking for, but what the hell, when I do find it, what good do I do? Here's the cycle, I find it, I confront her with it, she acknowledges it in the face of facts (or lies through it), I react...she gets mad, I retreat, she draws further into her shell. Hello, WTF is wrong with me? I NEED to let that all go!

This has been such good practical advice that I've been able to implement in theory (aka, in my head), but have not been putting into practice.
