I met with my H...

hope,

I know how you feel. I used to trust my H with my life and be so proud to have him by my side. It's sad how the men we once knew are no longer there anymore.

Hugs,

Smallish update:

H just called me, to check up on puppy. Funny how I was just talking about this.

He spent the weekend moving. He said he was doing pretty good. I gave him puppy updates.

Well, tonight was the first time that he referred to himself as my "ex-husband" during a conversation (what it was about is irrelevant). That kind of stung.

He said he would be in touch in a couple of days to see how puppy is. We were not on the phone for long. Sometimes I still get overwhelmingly sad about all of this. oh well.

Maybe he was testing the water to see how you would react. Maybe he needed to hear how it would sound to him in order for him to process some more thoughts. I can imagine how hard it must've been to hear it.

Hope I am glad you are back. I was only thinking about you this morning and here you are!

Maybe, ACJ. We are separated, so I guess that is the right term.

Thanks for the warm welcome!

Yes, he just used the term because, he would feel to guilty calling himself Husband as he has not been a very good one for quite awhile.

I have learned to not take too much stock in what people say. Not only MLC's, but everyone. Many times people say things they don't mean, or they come out different than intended.

He called about puppy that's a good sign.

Thanks for your update here.

Hope,

Thanks for posting an update, it was really insightful. I hope one day my H will come to terms for accepting his part instead of blaming me. I think he needs to do this in order for him to move forward and begin to heal.

I know what you mean they label themselves as the ex. I was called the ex-wife for the first time two years ago and it stung big time. And yet, we are still married.

Hugs, and enjoy puppy.
