Quote: But when you just let it lie because you don’t want to upset her, don’t want to listen to her excuses, don’t want to keep pushing to avoid her deflections, don’t want to face her continued rejections, then I don’t see how you will ever become happy, and her too. This is the “push” I am talking about. You will certainly be able to do it in a more civil manner than my wife and I, just don’t give up at the first obstacle.
But there are times where I would love to have a specialist there to stem what damage a layman can unintentionally do.
Pity me that the heart is slow to learn
What the swift mind beholds at every turn.
