this "PIecing" IS much harder than expected. ALL the feelings you described are ones I relate to. OMG,seriously.
At some point we started kind of "making it" on our own, and then they want back in and things are not the same. Prepare yourself (and her if you can) for the fact tht adjusting will take time. But keep in mind that there were issues you do Not want to repeat,and in truth she doesn't either. Make sure some things, even little things, are going to be different for you. Small, but visible things, are a good start.
like letting her pack the dishwasher "wrong", etc...And btw, get something for morning breath, and while you're at it, tell me how to tell my h to stop eating pizza/Italian food at work b/c every night I deal with that silently. I have a sensitive nose and love cologne on men. It affectsmy attraction level to him and I think he senses that but if I were to tell him, he'd be bugged, so I'm kind of stuck with that.
Anyhow, welcome to Piecing and read up the posts there. You'll find lots of help. And of course, try hard to remember to be grateful that our problems are in fixing our marriages, and many many others here never get this chance. j-
