A marriage is like playing tennis. Sometimes you hit the ball back sometimes you catch it &sometimes you flow your racket & sometimes you take the ball & go home. I like this it has to do w/ communication.

smile  I'm not married to a human partner but there are times I do some of the same things in my "marriage/relationship with my HP.  S/He just waits.  S/He knows I'll be back or will respond in a new way at some point in the game.  Thanks for the imagery in your share, Hoot.  I grinned when I read it and applied it to my relationship with my HP.

Sounds like a healthy marriage. Mine was more like rugby, painful, a bit silly and noone new the rules.x

That's closer to Australian Rules football really, el-cee!

I've never played tennis Kathleen, that might explain something about my marriage!! But I do agree with it, thanks for sharing

Kenny

Most of the time we are, Kathleen, in my experience. And we're not even in an Al-Anon meeting. Yay for us.
