Frank you and me are cool, the apology was unneeded and unwanted, truth be told, except for a small bit of misunderstanding, I was relieved because you had some fight (balls) in you.
To those defending, thank you. Again unneeded.
If someone says something to you or about you and it hurts...guess what you need to look deep at it, caus emore than likely that hurt is because the truth of it is kicking your ass.
I am not some sage guru. I am the first to say that. I am an old timer simply because of my join date, or because I have 5 bajillion posts after my name.
I have made mistakes, I have failed, I have suffered, I have learned, I have helped...I believe. My path is not for everyone, in fact the ONLY reason my marriage worked out is because my wife came out of her MLC enough. Why did she come out of it? I don't F-ing know. Was it because of something I did or did not do? I do not know, and it is not important to me.
This whole thing, I am grateful for, because frankly I kick ass compaired to the loser I was before this. I am the friend I would want, partner I would want if I was a woman, and the dad I still strive to be.
I have learned that I can always be better, because the day you stop trying to be better is the day you suck. It is the day you fail.
Its a choice. ; )
My time here is winding down again, not right now but soon. Capabale new guys are stepping up, keep an eye on Jimbo, and trapt and Machif he ever decides to post seriously.
Keep an ear out for the established ones as well.
We are all in this together; alone.

It is a gift to all of us on this site that the "old timers" are willing to come back and try and help all of us that are still dealing with our situations. I understand why the old timers leave, it takes a toll, it brings up old memories, old ghosts. It takes courage to rehash some of the painful memories.Thank you Jack.

What do you have against giants? You trespassed and broke into the giant's castle. Then you stole gold coins, then you stole a hen that lays golden eggs, then you stole a magical harp, then you killed the giant who was trying to get his stuff back (in addtion to grinding your bones).
Jack, You are for sure one of the lucky ones to survive with your family in tact. What were some of the first signs you noticed that your wife was coming out of it. I know everyone is different nut it truely is amazing to me how similar mlcers are.
Jack, I'm not sure what happened but I just wanted to say that your advice to me has been awesome and always helpful. Thank you very much.
