He texted me until after 2AM and the ILY's, am glad you are my wife,etc finally said.

It must really take a lot for these guys to break away from something they now realize is not what they want or who they even want to be with.

SF,
Yes, it takes an awful lot of faith and courage to break away from what they've been use to for a period of time. The withdrawal is no different than that from drugs, alcohol or gambling.

SF, you are such a warm, loving, compassionate and patient woman. He's finally opening his eyes to see all of these wonderful qualities that he shoved deep down a while back. The dropping of the crumbs of friendship is doing the job. I'm very happy to see his finally admit that he's glad you are his wife. This is a huge step for him.

Spring is just around the corner, I do hope that w/new beginnings/life, he'll finally be able to take that one huge step and come home.

Enjoy your week!

You guys are funny!

It is going to take him time to come back home which is okay as I want him to come home when he is ready.

I am glad he is in contact with me and opening up. He has made such great progress and now I just have to stand back and let him get thru this part as well as he is sometimes depressed, sometimes confused, sometimes afraid of me because his feelings run so deep for me, is so sorry for all he has done to us.......

lots of baggage he is carrying.

But I am okay.

SF,

This is a FAR better way than last year when he came back prematurely.

I consider it a HUGE positive that he is approaching this with deep contemplation.

Slow and steady wins the race, Momma always said.


Blessings,

Bill
