h4u, I agree. Your wife is afraid to say she f'ed up because she is still in WD and feeling all of this "loss" and looking at you wondering if it will ever change. I like your deal- we get on each other about being impatient. I think we both will have highs and lows and it will help to have each other push us through them. I don't know about you, but for me, everything going on in my relationship is seemingly magnified by 10 or more. For example, when H does some little annoying thing, usually it is just annoying, but now it is 10x MORE annoying than ever. It's cause everything is under the microscope right now. Time, time, time.
Root and h4u, of course I know what you are saying is right and makes sense. My hormones and "heart" tell me different, but doesn't matter now.....workin on the M......patience and time.
