Facing reality is easier than facing the unknown I guess. It's still not easy, but it sounds like you are on the right road!
Stay strong!

My D17 has been in counseling. Last night I went to her appt alone because she was sick. Had a good talk. Interesting thing the counselor said: Her parents divorced when she was 13 and to this day her favorite memory is having meals together with her parents. So things like being able to go to breakfast together and share a hug and kiss is important. Sure can be confusing, though! I still can't hide my feelings completely from my H (he knows when he has done something to upset me whether we are together or just on the phone), but I'm not crying buckets any more at least. The other thing I learned from the counseling session is that I NEED MORE COUNSELING!!!
