So this morning I had to take D10 to her counselor. The counselor wanted to talk with me first for an update. Man I really wish we both had been there. So I told her about all the happenings since Mother's Day and how my wife had slowly changed from "want to be friends again" to "I'm open to reconciliation". She thought that was a little encouraging. She asked if we had started counseling together yet and I had to say no because my wife isn't willing yet. But at my request she gave me the names of people she thinks highly of that are solution based. She thinks we need to get to counseling and eluded to feeling it's all solvable. I told her we wished she did marital counseling and she told me she did for a very long time as a primary specialty but finally decided to focus on kids. So if she's got a lot of experience, is saying we need to be in counseling and she thinks we can solve this and reconcile then I feel a good bit better. I've now had two counselors that have met us both say the same thing. I just need to really work on me and controlling my emotions.
