Don't be silly, you didn't offend me in the least. I know that you are right and that we should be able to discuss the A. I reckon recovery would have gone much quicker had we been able to discuss the A. But this hasn't happened and so I just get on with my life as best I can.
Its good to hear everyone's perspective. . .and I know that yours is right but is just isn't working for me.
Hope you have a lovely weekend and thanks for responding to me.

enid,
I wish that Steve H. could give you advise on this one............have you tried that yet????
Does your husband ever talk about "feelings?" If so, when???..............
No matter what, you have come a long way and you are giving your best! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="images/icons/wink.gif" />
hugs bb

I live in South Africa so speaking to Steve would be rather difficult. My H does share his feelings with me, so long as we don't discuss the A. Like the other day I asked him how he was feeling (during the A he was depressed and suicidal) and he said that he was feeling great and that he was starting to like himself again. He has also said that since the A stopped he has not once had a suicidal feeling. So, yes he does talk about his feelings, he will just not discuss the A.
When I asked why he had the A, his answer was "pure ego". He liked the fact that a woman young enough to be his daughter wanted to have sex with him. There is no fool like and old fool!!!
