This is great. I am thrilled for you. Your H stepped way out of his comfort zone to show you that he cared. I wish for many more such gestures for you, and I wish for your pain to leave forever.
MM, Look forward to more... My W always found it very difficult to express her love but recently she has started saying some nice things. The more practice LDs get the easier it becomes for them. He has broken the ice and hopefully it will not freeze over again. SD - A Mojo fan.
Thanks everyone. I hope to be able to offer similar congratulations to each and every one of you.
I am feeling amazingly calm and centered. I know we still have work to do, but I now truly believe that he loves and desires me and I haven't wasted the last 16 years of my love life. I now realize that until yesterday, I was working from the premise that he didn't care for me and I was just hoping that maybe he did or could. Now I am working with the knowledge that he does care for me and I can forgive and accept him so much easier now that he's revealed himself and his love.
This morning I was sorting through some new boxes of old books that I recently purchased. I started leafing through "The Sonnets" by Ted Berrigan. The first line of one of the sonnets about love was "Is there room in the room that you room in?". It struck me that this is the question that we all really need to ask ourselves and our spouses.
