Hi Jethro,

After H and I had been dating for about a year, he broke up with me, and started seeing someone else, like right away (or sooner?). It damn near killed me (what is with my unhealthy obsession with this man who treats me like this?). Anyway, after a while, he came back, pleading his love for me. It took some time, but time did heal things. To the point where I felt sure enough to marry him. Time does heal.

In the meantime, here are some thoughts...

So, my W and I get into bed and are just relaxing. The light is on (as I always read), but I was on my back with my eyes closed. She was just laying next to me not saying anything, but looking at me.
Quote:

She also said, "We'll work through this." I responded with the affirmative. In the past when she told me she would work on things her conviction was just not there. The words would come, but again, no action. This time it's very different. The words are different, how she says the words are different, and her actions when she speaks the words are different.

So, after the movie, we decided to come back to our place and play some games. We are driving separately and as I'm pulling into our garage, OUR song comes on the radio ("Heaven" by Brian Adams). We sat in the garage for a moment, looking at each other, and had some very sweet kisses. Then my sister and BIL came up the driveway and ruined the moment. Oh...well...
Quote:

We get home and put the kids to bed. We end up downstairs talking...me on the couch...she on the Lazyboy. We talk a few minutes, exchange a few smiles, then all of a sudden she says, "You're sweet." I say, "Thanks. That's nice of you to say. Why do you say that?" Her response, "Because it's true." I said thanks again. Then, she stares at me for a moment, our eyes locked, and says, "I love you."


Hang in there Jethro!
