Have a great day :)

I can not thank you enough for posting this link! I'm currently responding to a gal on the 'Problem solving for couples' board that is clearly in an abusive realtionship. I've been trying to get her to come and post over here. I came to see if she did and I saw this post. She's receiveing responses from uneducated and intolerant individuals over there. The point I keep trying to make over there is that people who haven't been there just don't get it. I'm going to copy and paste this info.
Thanks again and you have no idea how much I could have used a friend like you when I was in the midst of it all. Carry on!
Keep looking up^, Susan.
You are so welcome ladies, and thank you so much for the kind words, it made my eyes all teary.
Susan, congratulations on getting out, and maple - hang in there, I'll be in hanging in there too :)
I think it's an excellent article. It really explained to me the confusing reaction he is giving me. So my mind is somewhat set to an ease.
The doctor who wrote it, Joseph Carver, has a website. I personally want to hug this man!
http://www.drjoecarver.com -- look into the Article section, at the top of the list is an article "identifying Losers in relationships". It's pretty good too.
Hugs

Don't thank me, thank Dr. Joe! Eat my shorts Dr. Phil!
