Ouch. Sounds like you're in the loop--you know, the one in which you (by which I mean one, not just you specifically) circle round and round telling yourself yes/no/yes/no...What about a detour? What happens when you get mad back at him? Or frustrated at his frustration? And so on. I have always been impressed by your compassion for others. Why is it that we always have so little compassion or understanding for ourselves?
My therapist recently told me that I have been "tough," and that others, including several pdocs have agreed. Sigh. I sat on it a while, and then opted to forget it because I just didn't know what to do with it.
Feel better, please?
