[QUOTE="Elsieshaye, post: 509741, member: 12928"] Thanks, PG. C, yes, you're right, it's very much a situation of "why can't he react the way I want him to react." The problem for me is also that I am having a very hard time meeting him where he is. It's not just that I want him to react a certain way, it's that I don't think I can tolerate dealing with him if he doesn't. I was talking to my therapist about this last time I saw him, and I said that I recognized one one level that to get past this and move on I was going to have to be willing to tolerate a certain level of whiny, blame-y, drama from difficult child. But, right now, I don't have it in me to allow that. [/QUOTE]
