The platonic relationship continues Part 2

[Underdog]

Holy cow, you began that sprint Mama! Always, I thank you for your very detailed and eloquent thoughts.

Mama, I'm proud of you for seeing this as information and not personalizing it. Something tells me you're going to be kicking all of this into gear and seeing results quickly. I'll make sure to bookmark your thread.

Controlling my "anger" is not only going to help in the R with my H but with my kids as well.

You're absolutely right! It's the first step in separating ourselves from everyone else... and also the first step in owning our own feelings and allowing other people to own their own.

Authentic communication is the only way to go... and from here on out, I prefer to see truth rather than set up a sitch so that I am prevented from dealing with it. It stinks. It also doesn't teach kids how to to successfully navigate and communicate through their feelings either.

Best of luck, and I'm anxious to hear what you learn from the books. I just gave both of them away... to someone who needed the information more than I needed to stash it.
