Tipper, Forgive me if I sound a bit negative, but how long until you and your Husband will actually be living together again?
He still sounds so very much MLC, with his moods, outbursts and the drinking. Ignoring you and texting his friends? That is totally rude. No wonder you are frustrated.
Piecing is for TWO people who are committed to the Marriage, not one person doing all of the work and the other along for the ride.
I am glad you had a nice vacation together, I am sure you have some lovely memories and took tons of photos.
There can be no testimony without a test. I am praying to go through this test and come out the other end with a new and better marriage then before.
