Well, Unhappy. how goes it with you today? Are you still walking away from your W when she starts in on you? You really seem to me to be making progress, if you are taking more control of your life and M. That's very inspiring to me. I have hope that my H will do that more, and get stronger and begin to feel more loving to me, too. the things you do, I try to get my H to do, too, although indirectly, because I want him to want to take more control. He thinks and said he has always been weak, even as a kid. I never thought of him as weak, I thought he was a kind, responsible, reliable, sweet, hard working, funny, sensitive man. I just neglected to let him know all this over the years. If this is what is called weak, then I'll take him weak, but it's not. I know he likes me telling him these things now, but he said this morning that I was being sappy. Oh, well, maybe he needs me to be a little sappy now to make up for the years I wasn't sappy. Unhappy, you really have helped me to see inside a man who has been controlled by his W, and it has helped me to see what things to give up, and let him take over. And because you are so open with your situation, it has helped me to see somewhat the feelings my H must have been feeling. Thank you, I appreciate it. L
