I've been so stressed about finding a house and the rift between my parents and I that I took it out on BG big time last night.

I think when we fight he fights for us, tells me he loves me and never wants to lose me, my counselor tells me all the time I have to push him away to see if he goes, she also tells me I need to see he is not going anywhere and be happy or one day I may push him away.

OMG Barry was the same way about our apartment. I went and looked at them with my son and made my choice, and he was like "ok then that's the one". He didn't even want to go see it when we went to sign the papers, crazy man. He said as long as it has a place for him to shower, sleep and keep his stuff he was happy.

I think it's great that you're able to recognize what you might be doing wrong and you're open to changing it. I think that goes a long, long way in a relationship. I sure wish my STBX had the ability to recognize this in himself. So cut yourself some slack and GL with working it out :)

I so understand how you feel. I know I am trying so hard not to mess stuff up with Duck Fan and having to stop my sabotaging behaviors because I have never had someone be this good to me.
