New thread, new phase?

[JWS]

I don't think that your thoughts of him throwing his arms around you and making things better is Dumb. it is natural, and to be expected. I am sorry that this meeting was so hard but I am glad that you can see that you did succeed in your goals.

I know that it is really hard to believe right now but this is not easy for him either. he is very self absorbed and throwing himself into work and other things to get by and make it seem that he has no feelings or thoughts for you. telling you that he does not think about you is him trying to convince himself of that.

I am glad that you still have residual feelings for him and hate to have a failed marriage. that is what will keep you here and fighting for him and your marriage. you are doing very well here. I am sure you will make the most of the selling the house experience. make it fun and friendly, it may not produce instant results but keep up this 180. he has already noticed it and will continue to do so. plus I can't tell you how much better i feel settled into my new place. a fresh start, no bad memories, easier to focus on me and DBing.

I know that this meeting was very hard, but i think you did great! keep up the good work. try to think about the positives and not dwell on parts of the meeting you did not like as you wait or him to make the next move.
