I asked:

"How do you feel?"

You answered... Told me how you are doing.
Then you asked me :"Why do you ask?"

Then, the thread was locked.

So, here is my answer. I asked because I noticed something about you. Often you start posting really long responses, subsequently, your responses become nearly unreadable (to me) ... rather robot-like.

And I think.... He's doing this again! He must be in a lot of pain.

I think your posts become more and more verbose when you have maxed out on your stress-anxiety meter.

May I suggest you relax, enjoy your life, and worry less.

Too much to ask?

Take care.

pep,

Just FYI....sufdb cannot answer you. He and his ex apparently cannot post. So any messages or comments will have to be sent to lurkdom for now. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="images/icons/wink.gif" />

How about a number next time?

Like 2038952, which is 3285 less than the number for this day last year, and 3085 higher than the average for this season.

Sometimes...

Can't ya just feel the pain through all the thousands of words?

It's like watching someone hit themselves over the head with a hammer ... over and over.

Just STOP!

I feel bad that they can't post. I wish that the site had "Abuse Issues" section for people like them and me. When I went to a meeting for women who are victims of domestic assault, all I learned is that men are the problem and they are irredeemably evil. I don't think that's right. I think that anyone who stays in an abusive relationship has a view of marriage that is win-lose and has married someone with a view that is win-lose. Spouses become competitors for limited resources of time and money. As my H once said to me, "You are an obstacle to my happiness."
