WDID,

That is SOOO WONDERFUL! I am very happy and TREMENDOUSLY PROUD of you for making the right choice, and for having done this, your H will begin to have more faith in your M and in you. \:\)

Remember - TOTAL TRANSPARENCY AT ALL TIMES. No matter how difficult it might be. The goal is to rebuild and earn your H's trust again. You can continue to do this by being completely accountable for your whereabouts (ie - checking in often, calling if you're going to be late, etc).

Also try to keep in mind that your H's emotions are likely to vary from moment to moment for quite some time. One day he might be happy and confident, and the next he might be angry, or sad and insecure. This is all a very normal process he (and even you) will go through. DO NOT get discouraged or feel that it is hopeless when these latter-type moments arise. Work through them together as best you can. Listen and validate his feelings. Show genuine empathy and your willingness to help him get through it.

Again, GREAT job. \:\)
