No, I didn't know I could call. But the "too sensitive" comment-it was fun seeing your reaction. Until about 8 years ago, I bought that line completely (outside the home, mostly). One day at work, some guys were talking and said, "hey, we don't know where to buy flowers, but ask [bassman], he's sensitive, he's an F (Myers-Briggs) i.e., interpersonally sensitive). I went over and said, "noooo......I'm not sensitive, it's just that you guys are so f***king insensitive!!" :>}I enjoyed that moment...it was the end of feeling bad about sensitivity.
As far as my marriage, I'm committed to it.
You know, the posts have helped me a lot...I feel much better about the situation and have less of an urge to "fix" anything and also ask myself if I'm doing something because I feel it is a caring thing to do or because I feel like I have to or it won't get done. Just that thought calms me...thank you so much for your help. Of course, the down side is I may be back for more support and advice. :>}
