Success! WAW isnt gonna walk!

I think you will find you have this 'honeymoon' period and then things may well backslide.

And things have backslid. We have been having an awesome summer and we booked our family vacation, a cruise along the Mexican Riveria. It was to be a grand celebration - to reconnect & rekindle as well as to celebrate the fact we both got great new jobs. We leave on this cruise in a little over a week. We hosted a pool/BBQ party, we did day trips, family fun days, dates, it was great - it was honeymoon!

2 days ago, she backslid back to where she was last spring...aka no energy to invest in our marriage, no interest in our relationship, ILUBNILWU, you deserve better, etc

And as she backslid, so did I - back into that blubbering clingy fool who cant stop talking about the R and what the hell happened after everything had been progressing so well.

So here we are, 1 week removed from the cruise. She now wants to treat it as a final special memory of our family for our son, rather than the original motive for the trip; the celebration of our new lives together

I had barely begun to heal when these wounds were ripped open again.

I feel like I am back to square 1. I am so frustrated and dont know what to do. So I am back here again, refreshing my mind on the strategies that helped me get this far.

Now I need some suggestions from folks who did have a backslide, and how they handled it. Just treat it like the original bomb and start all over again? Or is there hope this backslide could reverse itself as quickly as it came in?
