Brunette... Hearing you, I have a DSD so that was exactly how it felt for me quite often. It's a lot better now, but I had the world's biggest dummy spit because I felt like we were always on completely different pages. He understands now, that at least once a week is dedicated to me/us that we can talk and hug and be normal, with no phone answering because he would forget everything we had just said. I am really lucky now, that he gets my worries, and knows that he actually has to actively reassure me that he's around, and for the rest of the time, I have to accept that it's his passion and it gets to rule his world. We've worked really hard to get to the point where we understand each other. It's helped. And he's very reserved about excitement, so I can never tell if he's pleased and he has to say it because he wears the CEO mask so well.

Thanks for the support everyone though, it's really helping ease the frustration. I am just praying the OB is nowhere near the same. If he is, I am soooooo changing my OB early on.
