On the verge of piecing......a new beginning

[JCJ]

Thanks TD, that really helped me understand the difference. I think I have seen from my sisters sitch that having children doesn't keep your marriage together it just makes things a lot more painful. I suppose I am kind of grasping around really for anything. It's silly that I am feeling discouraged after the positives this week, I suppose I just feeling a bit drained from it. Sorry I don't want to hijack your thread...

Your q about the cat going to stay... he is living in his parents flat and his Dad has a deadly allergy to cats hence my thought of asking if he wanted to spend time at our house with the cat. I thought it best not to send that now but maybe after our meeting as a 'oh I forgot to say earlier but...' type text so it doesn't seem desparate or pursuing. Sorry, now I have hijacked!!

Love the way you handled your wifes little petulant strop and called her bluff - pure brilliance! and the best outcome is that you are both happy. The good thing about disagreements is the making up! lol!
