Thanks for the friend request. Good luck on the new endeavors. I as well work in the investment management field. Have so for about 17 years. The market if finally turing around so hopefully things will get back to the good old days.
Cheers, Eric

OMG what an a$$hole I must seem to W! With all her shannanigans we evolved (or I did) into a parent child relationship. Now I see the damage I did in my M and what I do when I talk to her now.
The f@cking light bulb just went on! I realize now how VERY important it is for me to keep my trap SHUT when and if I talk to her.
Ok so that is NOT the kind of man I want to be going forward.
The past is the past I can only do better in the future...
My goal is to some day be the person my dog thinks I am
Jack, you be nice now, ya hear? No talking smack about Mach. LOL!
True, listen, don't beat yourself up for what you didn't realize in the past. That just saps your energy. Take it from someone who was the shoulda, coulda, woulda queen. Still happens from time to time, but, really, it serves no purpose. Use the new knowledge to propel you forward.
You now know something you want to change about yourself. Yippee! So, starting right now, begin to figure out what you can do differently.
And I know Jack hates it when people go on and on about him. But, as he often is, he's right. DO NOT go telling her you've had this epiphany. Just live it. You can do it.
Yeah I get the part about not sharing that. Mach already told me I can't talk my way out of something I acted my way into ...
...and it stuck.
Do you think most LBS's end up with controling behavior just because of circumstances? I don't think I was before? Maybe I was but God I will recognize that when I see it again.

Nope, I dont think most LBS's end up with controlling behavior. I think we all handle life in different ways for different reasons at different times.
Look, I know that right now it might seem important to understand why you have acted as you have in the past. And you can certainly try to figure it out - for a little while. But dont get so lost in the whys that the will bes get postponed, ya know?
The really important thing is that you recognize it now and you don't want to be that person anymore. Good for you. Become the person you were meant to be.
