Especially OneDay and BA065 - you guys are reading me so well. I sort of lost hope over the weekend, and thought maybe I should just get over it and move on. I really needed that encouragement that DB can work and it has a chance of working for me. My mum made a tiny comment about women who hang onto a marriage even when its obvious that its over.... And I guess I was thinking am I just dragging out the process instead of facing reality? But you are right. I choose to stand for H and for our marriage, and if anything can bring him back then it has to be DB. If it doesnt bring him back then I will know that I tried everything, and in the meantime I know I will be stronger and happier anyway.
My mum was actually trying to encourage me that I'm doing great, by not letting the breakdown of our marriage get me all bitter and revengeful. (Not that Mum knows I'm trying to DB). I've started to tell a few people, but I realise that they think I'm nuts and try and talk me out of it, with the best intentions of helping me let go. So you guys are my support - thank you from the bottom of my heart for helping just by reading and encouraging me.
