Sometimes she gives me the impression that she'd love to share her pain with me........no thanks, one in the family is enough!  |
Dear Jim -
Don't sell yourself short. Among all the souses I know, you have most clearly gone the extra mile to take her pain in. You are clearly empathetic and do not feel feel personally threatened by her situation.
Would that could be said of all spouses. Or in the immortal words of Henny Youngman, "Take my wife, please."
