I've been OK. H's father passed away last week- they hadn't spoken or seen each other in more than 20 years. I never met him. We went to the funeral. I'm glad it's over, but I know h has mega-issues to continue to work on, his r with his father being a major part of it.
I'm having difficulties trusting, I have my doubts about the gambling and he hasn't been very open with his money issues. I keep thinking about how he left me and the kids- how could he do that? Will he leave again? It still haunts me.
When I first started reading success stories on this site, I saw how alot of people who were piecing would post their "positives", so I'm going to try to do that.
Positives: (1) he is here; (2) we have been more affectionate with each other, including in bed; (3) he has been showing more patience with the kids; (4) he is willing to talk about his issues w/me and in MC; (5) we have plans for the future.
