Don't know why, but was thinking about this today...if I had to pick three words to describe my experience in this relationship with BF and being a pseudo SM, what would I choose? I decided
1. disregarded
2. deflated
3. frustrated
What 3 words describe your experiences?

which I must say are not as good as
1. loved
2. valued
3. blessed
but a hell of a lot better than
1. psychotic
2. suicidal
3. homicidal
Not there just yet! Smile

At one time...early on... I agree. Now I just feel......FRUSTRATED.... but i am on the home stretch now....

I see the light at the end of the tunnel.

All I can say...is.... HANG IN THERE.

I have felt:

1. underappreciated
2. misunderstood
3. hopeless

And that is with pretty dang decent skids. At least they weren't disrespectful to me - or not to my face anyway. Who knows what they talk about with BM...

I would have to say:
1. Loved
2. Appreciated
3. Misunderstood (about issues concerning SS as my partner never sees his bad side).
Overall I am feeling very happy at the moment!
However I have just had 2 glorious weeks without even having a phone discussion with the BM or SS - this is all going to come crashing down in a few hours when he arrives though. Then I might feel:
1. Annoyed
2. Frustrated
3. Bad-guy (like I have to be the bad guy to make sure my kids aren't getting hurt).
