"A master of taking care of the feelings and problems of others, Sherrie feels like a miserable failure. Sherrie's unproductive energy, fearful niceness, and overresponsibility to the core of the problem: Sherrie suffers from severe difficulties in taking ownership of her life."
Boundaries, Dr. Henry Cloud & Dr. John Townsend.
Spot on.
I look at myself as a problem solver, this is my job in life.
A friend of ours has a project where he has to analyze a relationship. He picked us because i have a series of disastrous relationships and joe had only been married once before.
He asked us a series of questions. It was eye opening and i felt amazing as if i had a great therapy session. I rated myself as a 7 as a wife. I feel bad that being raped has kept me from being intimate as much as my husband would like. I have been extremely irritated lately.
I wasn't able to take the same days off as joe this week. I am home alone tonight. I took advantage of the time. I took a detox bath. I found some music on the satellite and took the time to read.
Joe called to check on me and this is most like me that i have felt in a really long time.
I am hoping that i have been torn down enough that God is rebuilding me.
