Quote: Who knows, and more importantly, who the hell cares! What I KNOW is that I am deciding not to let it affect me, and thus I do not need to talk to her about it. I got pissed, raged a bit, yelled at the walls, and then moved on. I am NOT MY emotions, nor my reactions to them. I can choose to make an issue of something or not. It's up to me, and ultimately I have to live with my decisions. It feels good to know that and really DO it!
I think you're getting the hang of it - WHO CARES! You control YOU and only you. And see how positive it turned out? Glad you got a handle on it before W came home. Just imagine had you gone off on her, maybe she never would have gone to look at the ring today - how's that for a thought!
