@peteslilbro : ) I hope you find your soulmate too.
You're right; two people need to evolve together. If one person works at it and the other doesn't, there stems resentment and the feeling of being wronged.

hi - I don't know where you're at in terms of relationships - and your post is 11 months old - but I can't help but tell you that I used to be like you & I know how it made me feel. I gave it up, broke up with a jerk and bought this ladies book.
Good luck - here's to hoping you're happy now : D

Make part 2 where you tell the claire story. I did it and wow! My new friend has already influenced my style and helping with getting some cash. In only 7 days.

I never realized that I had relinquished my "power" to my significant other. It is a "long distance relationship," and I only see him on weekends. Being 60 (61 in Feb.), I believed that I had to live with a toxic tie in order to have companionship - but even THAT is dwindling. He works on his laptop and watches TV - and there is virtually NO interaction, certainly no intimacy. My therapist says he's "afraid of intimacy," having been married 4 times. What to do about it is driving me crazy.
i want to be a happy wife not a sad mistress of course i think im going to lose him but for the first time in 7 years i said no to sex because i know i will feel awful afterwards when he walks away and i dont see him again until he feels like it,,, im making a stand encouraged by you thank you i know that unless he evolves with me its goodbye i will never be a wife if i accept being treated like im worthless,i intend to marry my true love soulmate thank you x

I have decided not to feel guilty for standing for the respect that I deserve. I saw my boyfriend dance sexy with someone else in front of me, and I left him at the club forcing him to get a ride home with his friend. I used to just wait around until the dance was over and ask why he did this or why he did that. Same here....it wil be good bye if he can't or won't evolve with me. Maybe trying for 2 years with inconsistent results was too long
