> I am married, so I guess I do want relationships, but on my very strict terms. My husband puts up with a lot, and has threatened to leave, but for some reason doesn't. Maybe the part of him that needs the relationship connects with the part of mine that does and neither of us recognizes it?Could be. I guess I forgot you were married (she says sheepishly).

> I've never had psych testing done. ...If I could get through it psych testing might be very interesting. What is it like?It depends on what type you have. I was thinking of a couple of paper and pencil types, in particular, the MMPI and MMCI, which are pretty good at telling things such at what symptoms predominate, how much you trust others, how you view yourself, how you view others, etc. There are also tests that are given more in an interview format, and there are less structured tests, like the Rorschach. Tests like that might be more intimidating.
It was just a thought. I'm a big fan of psych. testing for treatment planning, though.
Keep plowing away, I think. You'll eventually get where you need to be.
