Me2, Responding to your reply on N's thread. Resentment is something that can go! just as quick as it comes. H's resentment is his problem just as my resentment is mine. He may be struggling with it as it is an ill feeling that is hard to justify with reality.
I was struggling a bit myself last night. When this happens, I excuse myself and go out for a while. I still get twinges and I don't want to talk about it cus there is no justification for it. In other words, there is no sense talking about it if it is a personal issue. The way I see it is there ain't much sense in bringing problems to the table that we don't have solutions for. Especially, personal problems.
This may help you see how a guy might think. We don't want to burden our loved ones with something we don't understand ourselves. If you try to pull it out of us, it appears controlling. Men need to solve there own problems for themselves. During this time, leave us be, maybe a head rub with no words, perhaps a back scratch, perhaps a hug. Whatever you do, don't push or pull.
Sorry about my broken posts. Been having a wee bit of trouble weening off the med I've been on for the past 7 months.
