Excellent points, Skeezyks! Pythocles needs to take care of his needs too. [/QUOTE]

I have gone to counseling myself. She refuses to go. After several sessions, the overall impression I got was that I should do something about making myself happy. So, I am trying to do that. I don't know what that will mean for our relationship. I don't feel guilty on a conscious level. But maybe I'm somehow denying it.
