He's laid back and easy going, to a point. And it takes a lot for me
to push him to that point. And when I'm there, it's obvious and he
gets in the car and goes for a drive to his "thinking place" where he
will be until he calms down and has thought things through.

He's very logical and rational. Most of the time, it's me ranting and
raving, waving my hands in the air, looking like an idiot while he
tries not to laugh too loud. He's quick to point out flaws in my
thinking and will not hesitate to tell me if something's wrong. He
will tell you when my mood is going to swing the other way before I
even entertain the idea.

I know I've said things that have hurt and upset him. And while he's
gotten upset and argued with me a few times, most of the time he keeps
telling himself I"m not in my right mind and that it will pass, just
don't feed her and she'll be fine. And that's true. WHen I pick a
fight, and he just doesn't bite, I'll rant about it and then when it's
done it's done and I forget and move on. He doesn't always forget,
but he does always forgive.

I've ditched my medication a couple times, and caused all sorts of
havoc. THe last time I did that, when it was all over and I was
picking up the pieces (and figuring out how I was going to financially
survive the mess I created) he issued an ultimatum: ditch the meds
again and I'm gone. And I'll take Munchkin with me. It had the
desired effect. He had my attention and I began dealing with things I
didn't want to deal with or face.

He and I have known each other for over 10 years now. We were best
friends first, and later became more. I honestly don't know what I'd
do without him, and neither does Munchkin.

My ex husband. Everything about him.

I can only congratulate you on your relationship.

My wife is my mirror.
I sometimes see a picture in from me I do not like.
I begin to think what I can do,
that this picture becomes more beautiful.

Chris


== original text in German language ==

Ich kann euch zu eurer Beziehung nur gratulieren.

Meine Frau ist mein Spiegel.
Ich sehe manchmal darin ein Bild von mir,
welches mir nicht gef?llt.
Ich beginne nachzudenken, was ich tun kann,
da? dieses Bild sch?ner wird.

Christian
