Today I get to start something I have always been moaning and groaning about to MIkey for the past couple of years. And can’t say that now that the day is here I am looking forward to it. I don’t want to hear about my role in things; I just want to hear how Mikey is going to do a,b, and c to make things perfect.
I am touched the Mikey took the initiative to find a couples therapist even though she REALLY doesn’t like therapy but recognized that our marriage needed guidance and a boost and remain open to the process that begins tonight.
so readers which one is the truer statement?
it is always so much easier and less painful to shift the responsibility onto Someone Else ~ whether its a spouse, a friend, a situation or a complete stranger…
it takes a lot of courage to honestly admit you wish you could just leave the work to Mikey and just reap the benefits without working on yourself, too. i think the true statement in both sentiments is found in the love you and Mikey have for one another ~ and that despite the reluctance on both your parts you are choosing to fight for yourselves and for each other…
you are both in my thoughts and prayers!

sometimes the idea of something is much better than the thing in actuality. you two are taking a brave step today. good luck and i hope it leads to good things!
I agree completely with Chris. the idea and the fantasy is typically much better than the actuality. But, you are both commended b/c you are taking that step, it’s one I regret we didn’t get to do. Best of luck to ya both
Just go in with open minds and hearts.
how did it go?! sending love to you both.
