LL,

He's not gonna fight. You know that. I feel so sad for you right now, but I have to look back at the basics. How did you draw him back to you? He did seem to make some genuine efforts when he first came back. Have you gone back to doing the things that he didn't respond to so well?

Listen LL, I know it is a pain in the a$$ to have to work so hard to get anything from him, when you just want to be relaxed around him and have him appreciate who you are. He should...you are a wonderful, dedicated wife and mother, with a lot to offer him. But he is stubborn and won't respond when you want him to. I personally think it's a bit of a game. But despite his faults, there are many good things about him, and he is the father of your children. Maybe things just moved too quickly for him (even though it has been too slowly for you) and he has cold feet now. He may be feeling pressure from you, as you are speaking your mind. Is it worth taking a step back, maybe even way back, to see if he warms up to you again? You were making progress. This may just have to go at his speed.
