[QUOTE="marlboro, post: 729106, member: 22857"] I don’t have any problem believing I’m alone. I surely spent enough time explaining to others that they were not alone. I spend more of my time trying to get my wife to deal with it, since a) she was the best mother I ever saw and I wished she had been mine, b) she lived in a childhood that was compared to me, fully supportive of her, and c) she doesn’t have all the tools that I learned or developed to address the issues, and tends to internalize it as a failing on her part. She would also be highly unlikely to show up in a forum online. And, although its never mentioned, going to see a 20 something therapist when you are pushing 70, when the therapist is a child in your eyes, is very very very difficult to do. There are very few therapists out there in TV Land who are even close to our age. [/QUOTE]
