Kim, welcome to the board! I'm glad you've found acceptance here and a place to unwind and be yourself...craziness and all. :)


One thing stuck out to me on your post... But I am pretty good at recognizing when I am being irrational and covering it up until I dont feel that way anymore so only I get hurt out of the deal. Ya know, I've only been married (just about) 5 years, but my Dh and I have had many lifetimes worth of issues to deal with already. One of the things I've learned that came hard was that by trying to cover up my feelings of hurt, or neediness, or insecurity, I'm actually robbing him of a chance to be there for me and be what I need. I'm taking from him a chance for him to prove his love and show me the partner he can be for me. By showing him those things I allow him to be the man, the partner, the friend that he WANTS to be. It's scary, especially at first, but it will only ultimately strengthen your relationship. If for some reason he shies away from you when you're vulnerable, then the issue isn't you...the issue is trust in your relationship. If you want to be more vulnerable and open with him, then you'd have to work on the trust in your relationship first, but if he rejects that idea, the fault lies with an issue in the relationship - NOT YOU. I hope I'm not butting in where I'm not wanted. I also have noticed in myself that my moods are much easier to handle with I can be myself around DH. He sees the good, the manic, and the bad. And it helps level me out.


Anyway. I hope things go better for you. Please feel free to be here as much as you like (or need). :) I'm glad you're here!

Take care!
