Thanks for dropping in, Wii. I know I will get better as time marches on...I am doing better already in fact, than I was even a week ago. I need to get to the point where I can stand back and watch this unfold, seeking every possible opportunity to help her see me in a more positive light. You're right, I can't make her happy (especially now), I can just treat her with love, respect and friendship and hope that she hasn't closed the door on me.
The hardest part of this is stepping back and having faith that this is really what she wants and needs. Everything I previously knew tells me that she needs to know how much I love and want her...but right now, that would be R suicide!
It sure has calmed me down by reading some of the sitches on here, especially the Success Stories section. Some couples have been so much further down the D road, and have regained their SO's trust and love, and then came back to tell us how they did it. Wow, that is inspiration to us all!
