ink, that was an interesting read...the whole time I was reading it, I was thinking, "yeah, that is so right!" Unfortunately, the problem with me is I capitulate almost all the time. I spend my whole life thinking just what Doc said in his article...if I argue, I will only end up feeling bad, so why not just give in? And, because I give in so much, and for so many things, I end up being taken advantage of, and never get what I really want out of relationships. And that sure doesn't seem to be choosing happiness.
