I'm ok, didn't go nuts or anything. <P> Wife and I went to lunch with friends. The whole evening was nothing but insults towards me by wife. I kept my cool and allowed her to vent on me in front of guests. <P> Just feel that after this latest flare-up, all is lost. I get the feeling that no matter what I wanted it is too late. Yes I was feeling quite sorry for myself earlier today. Guess I still am. I just feel like I am losing control at times.<P> I make it worse when I post then go back later and read what I wrote. I don't know, just feel worthless. know what I mean. And destructive as he!!.<P> If tomorrow goes like today I may through in the towel. This is affecting my health.

I know what you mean, ok? You're not worthless, though. You can write whatever you want here. DOn't feel bad GO back and learn something - maybe - from what you write, but don't be sorry. I know you are tired. Plan A is hell - there's lots of us there. vent here. it's ok. It may be time for Plan B.. don't make any decisions tonight. tomorrow will be a new day.

Faith, how hove you been doing? I read, but didn't reply to your last thread. Are things going better for you?<P> I did agree with that one poster on that thread, you do seem very strong. Much more so that I.

JD,<BR>I'm sorry I didn't get back to you last night. [Linked Image from marriagebuilders.com] I was being paged... you know, Faith, hope and love. And Faith was needed. [Linked Image from marriagebuilders.com]<P>I am doing much better. thank you for asking.<P>I was crazy that day, and everyone picked me up and put me right back where I needed to be. Like I said, plan A is h-e-double hockey-sticks sometimes. Sometimes, it's wonderful, because we are becoming better and stronger in the process.<P>H is still being himself. But I have renewed energy and courage.<P>thank you again for asking. [Linked Image from marriagebuilders.com]<P>------------------<BR>Faith1<P>"Then Jesus answered, 'Woman, you have great faith! Your request is granted.'"<BR>Matt 15:28

Hey man, sorry I missed the post. I mostly only get on here during the business week at work. But I'm glad I helped you out. You just seemed to be exactly where I've been and I feel so much stronger now, so I wanted to help you see what I learned the hard way.<P>The pessimist's attitude does help to cope with the constant downtrodding us BSes seem to have to put up with, but don't let it consume you. Just take it one day at a time, and you never know... things might change for the better.
