Faith - I understand what I said and it was likely weak and backtracking.
I have tried to do the DB principles since the separation began.
Yet - The conversation we had last night was similar to the ones back when the divorce action was in process - and back then it was really doing damage.
I think the news of the BF admission caught me off guard and I saw my marriage further into the abyss - and then reacted desparately to save anything - but in a calm clear way.
On a better note - the conversation was not clingy or demanding or weak... It was really more my standing my ground and expressing my true feelings... they did not go to a deaf ear as they did months ago.
Also, rather then fight or get angry, I expressed my committment.
I plan to follow the DB principles the majority of the time... but sometimes I am only human and my heart takes over.
I think it put some conflicting thoughts in her head about the right direction rather than thinking she is doing the absolute right thing.
