I was reading one of Jerry's replies to a post just now and I didn't really realize but I put it to use this week. " It's none of my business"
My partner and I aren't speaking much but I didn't fight, didn't ask the questions, cry, beg or quiz. I just went on with my business. Things are so so much calmer then in past fights. Now after a couple of days....I don't even care. I let go.
No food....I mean no food in the house but yesterday I went to the store and bought all the fixings to make a big beautiful salad with chicken in it. Well my partner didn't come home until late so I didn't make the meal. When he did get home. I finally came out of the bedroom and saw he was making himself cereal for dinner. I told him I purchased the fixings and if he would like to join me for dinner tomorrow and he said yes that would be nice. He then said if I wanted he would go shopping with me to get some food. I said that would be nice. As I was walking away....he said " Your a good woman " Well you know I thought..... YES I AM
Let go let God.....
PS: I'm still going to leave but in the short term I can keep the peace within myself
