Hi All,
For what its worth, I got, "We have fundamental differences."
Like what you ask?
There were five that outweighed all else positive in his pea brain that I heard repeatedly each time we got closer and spent enjoyable time together. Within days I would get spewing swearing monster yelling these things at me.
1. I don't like horror movies???
2. I drink milk.
3. I enjoy other people and am friendly.
4. I "made" him watch one episode of Everybody Loves Raymond several years before the BD.
5. I am kind and believe the best in people.
Now the complaints with J in his depression that I am getting are mainly:
1. I am too friendly and open with other people.
2. I think everyone has something good in them.
3. I eat too healthy. (LBS diet anyone?)
4. I shower too often. (Daily is too much, really?

)

5. I am too successful at my job and make too much money.

I really have some kind of luck.

If you don't learn your lesson the first time around, you might get the lightening bolt I got...Maybe I was Typhoid Mary or Lizzy Borden in another life.

This morning a conversation with J:
Me-Good Morning, would you help me move these things into the backyard?
J-No. I don't feel like it and I don't have to if I don't want to.
Me-Please help me move these things of yours into the backyard before I am cited by the housing authority for having junk in my front yard.
J-Why are you so negative? Why do you nag, nag, nag? First you want me to shower, now to move these things. What's next? Take out the garbage?
M-Now that you mention it, it is garbage day. Please take out the recycling bin as well.
J-I'm only doing one or the other. Which do you want me to do?
M-I see. Well do the first then.
J-What was the first thing?
(And start all over with the conversation.) I ended up taking out the recycling and garbage and moving the things to the back. The only thing he did was help me move the heavy things. I think I have just become the mother of a teenager without the pregnancy.
if people won’t listen to you, there’s no point in talking to people. If they won’t listen, you’re just banging your head against a wall.
Sadly Ive used up all the time I had allotted to spend banging my head on the wall
