Thank you for such gentle words. I walk around feeling .. not quite like a failure.. but that I don't do good enough. Over the past months I can tell a difference in how I approach things, not absorbing all the blame, seeing him as a whole person rather than just the husband I adored (and we both frustrated each other to no end).
A marriage ebbs with tiny nicks and cuts when they're not dealt with over time. The understanding I've gained now, along with the confidence in myself, would no doubt bring a different understanding. But.. that's playing with shoulda, woulda, coulda's. No good.
Your words give me a new lilt in my walk. Thank you.
