Well, I don't know if my wife read my journal entry, or if she just picked up on my general change in disposition, but she seems to know that something has changed in my mind.  I think the only thing that has changed is the way I look at her.  She is, at this point, incapable of being my partner.  I still love her.  I still care about her.  I am not looking for another partner.  But  I cannot count on her to take on any share of the housework, nor can I count on her to fulfill any needs I may have.I am seeking friendships, not lovers (nor "brave strangers").  I need other people to help me realize my worthyness as a human being (sp).Yesterday she was clingyer and more paranoid than ever.  She talks so much that it seems like she doesn't even want me to be able to think.Sigh.  It's a tough road ahead.  But then, when has it not been.
