I know her tone probably wasn't what you were looking for, BUT don't look for excitement from her right now, you aren't likely to see that from her. She's NOT going to trust you right now...it's really that plain and simple. This is just FYI for your benefit, but as a HD spouse...when our LD's have hurt us for so long, rejected us for so long, or told us that they would fix things for so long...we simply aren't going to take what they say to us and pin hopes to it. She's been let down too often, so she's not going to get her hopes up...make sense?
Now, concentrate on the fact that
#1 She wasn't packing #2 It doesn't look like she's going anywhere #3 She hasn't filed for D #4 She said she appreciated your efforts (even if it wasn't said enthusiastically) #5 As I recall she agreed to read SSM
Now, your going to have to let your actions, not your words speak for you. You are going to have to follow-through with your Dr's. Appt's and medications, whatever therapy you told her you would go to etc. Because that's what we as hurting HD partners need...we need to see actions, not just hear the words. I cannot tell you how many times my H told me "he would fix things", but NEVER did anything about it. It got to the point where when whe would say that, in my mind I thought "yeah, heard that before." Until I saw real changes in my H's behaviors I didn't take anything he said at face-value. She is going to have to see tangible changes from you...just keep that in mind.
