Good list
You are right about that Tapsel, but for some reason after I wrote down that list, it freed me from my negative feelings towards him. When he cried over Bill's letter, I felt the same love for him that I always have. He has a very tender heart. His love for his daughters is boundless. They are very lucky women.
And as for me, when I remind him that I'm here too, he restores some of my faith in him. Mother's hearts and father's hearts are very different.

Makes2Short - I am afraid that nearly every person in this world feels at
one time or another that life cheated them out of something. The only thing that helps is for both to try really hard to focus on the things that are good about their partner. There is always something good. No one is 100 % bad. (making a list would be best) Tell them. Give praise where praise is due. If you just cannot tell the person at least focus on the good. As you begin to notice other good things, no matter how small, add those to your list. Give thanks for the good things. Soon you will notice more good than bad.

I just always have the greatest empathy for you, I guess, Make2.
I've had the care of others such as you and I just feel your pain. You're right, it's only half the story.

E-mail your mailing address and I will send you a copy of my book..."Catching Good Health With Homeopathic Medicine". You will find, among the 60 patient interviews, examples to allow you to determine that a good "classically" trained homeopathic physician could help you a lot. I feel for you. Good luck.

Dear Klara
You must remember, you are only hearing half the story. My husband can be a butt sometimes, but other times, he can be so dear. He can cry and not many men, do.

I'm concerned here, Make2. Does he always point out your faults like this?
You have enough to worry about, in my opinion, without this.

There is nothing to apologize for.
To be a little crazy and enjoy it it great. I used to feel that way about my little craziness when it wasn't depression.
