feelings because he feels that I am more considerate of his and pay attention to him, he doesn't feel he is being ignored like he sometimes used to. Fights tend to be over before they've begun because he doesn't lose his temper with me any more, and he doesn't let my occasional burst of sulkiness or bad temper annoy him, he just takes control and I find the temper just oozes out of me. it's a great feeling.
As for the move, well I have lived in the area I live in now virtually my whole life, I only live about a mile from the house I grew up in. But if we moved we'd only be about 90 miles from here (in the US that would be practically next door, wouldn't it?), easy enough to come back form time to time to see people. And it would be nice for the children to be near their grandmother, she's their only surviving grandparent, and various aunts and uncles and cousins live round about. And they love the idea of living by the sea. So do I, I'll just have to get used to hearing seagulls instead of ducks and geese and swans.
My husband is a gem, but I don't think I ever fully realised it before I discovered this site.

Seagulls.
Hey Louise,
The sound of seagulls first thing in the morning is great!
Take it from one who knows.
And your children will love it! - Take it from one who also knows about this!
Noone is not talking about a situation in which he was provoking his wife. Sometimes women do find fault, needle, etc.
It is then the man's responsibility to stop this. When a woman trusts a man enough to discipline her, even when she thinks he is wrong, she is deferring to his judgement. This act of trust occurs because of her long and loving experience with a man who has a repeated past history of putting the life of his wife and family, including their needs and preferences, well ahead of his own.
Yes, such a man sees beyond himself, and beyond the immediate verbal protests of a wife who nonetheless submits to the head of house when she needs a spanking.
