Number 8, still too late for DB to work.

[cw68]

Well, some good news. H has agreed to marriage counseling BUT NOT for our marriage, rather for us to communicate better for the sake of our children and the fact that we are stuck with each other forever. This gives me hope for our children that they will have parents who don't hate each other and can effectively communicate. He has said repeatedly that he "is done with this marriage" and I believe him. I'm not going to be stupid and hope that this will change that. It's not going to. He is done. But we have to repair our relationship for the sake of the kids and for our sakes too. Even though he agreed to this too late to make a change in our relationship, it gives me hope that we will start to heal. He reiterated that he will not go to Retro, but he will do this.
