Quote: It is strange as I talk to some of my friends and family,they just don't get what it is I am doing...They don't understand how I can be happy and feel good about me and things that are happening.
Then I think, well, if our spouses don't have the resources we have had, they won't know how to start to mend it.
This really is the crux of things, isn't it? Our friends don't understand what we are doing because they are not on the "path" of self discovery like we are. Our Ses don't understand how to fix things because, they too, are not on a path to self discovery (even though they think they are). Our self discovery shows itself to our friends, family, and Ses in different ways... I have found in my sitch that my W is curious and encouraged enough about my changes that she is willing to read some of the books I've been reading to get my head straight. She's not totally into it or anything, but the curiosity is there. However, ultimately, our Ses have to come to the party...
