JL..I don't know what to say about the drifting..I do know that we can't change any of that as far as our h are concerned...I spent several months a year ago March making myself physically sick wondering what I will do if he leaves, what if he is having an a, all the horrible feelings.I thought things were better all summer..yet I knew they really were not..my h was sure that he had to leave in order for us/him to find what he needed...I did not plant flowers last year..I moped around wondering what was going to happen..then I woke up and decided I will survive even if the m falls apart...it still scares the *ell out of me to think I may still end up d..but things have so improved since he moved...because he feels better, I feel better..we are doing things apart from each other that we have never taken the time to do...finding ourselves that got lost in our years of parenting and putting family/kids first.
My advice to any newly m couples would be to let each other have their own interests..but make time for each other.
Jackie..I know the weight thing too well..am trying to lose some more..but can't seem to stick to it..it goes on so fast..but try to lose 1 pound and you would think you were deprived!!! I have so many people ask why I am so patient..why not give him a date to make up his mind..they don't understand..and I am tired of trying to explain and I don't really have to anyways!!
