Whenever I come back to check on my thread and I see where you all have sent me a post and it is always full of love and encouragement, well, I would say that I'm at a loss for words, but you would never believe that......would ya? (lol) Seriously, I appreciate the prayers and the show of concern that you have given me. It does help so much to get the feedback from you that I have.
My H has been really trying to do little things to show more affection without just coming on too strong too quickly and I have been able to let him. I was a little tense at first, afraid that I would have that old feeling of not wanting him to touch me, but I didn't and I was very relieved. I feel like God is really helping me and I think it is b/c of you...my friends that are praying for me. Thanks to all of you, so much.
Joe, when I read your post, I wanted to cry and in some places I had to laugh (couldn't help myself) but in all of it....my heart went out to you. I know how frustrating it is when there is no communication in a MR......you know I do! I also know what it is like to get those "looks" that you dread so much that it keeps you from even trying to talk to your S. I did the same thing. I would put off talking b/c I just knew one of those looks would come right at me.
I have not done it in a real long time....years, in fact. But, I use to write letters to my H b/c talking to him seemed almost impossilbe. Maybe you could communicate with her through emails better, I don't know. It is better to try face to face, but as long as there is some type of communication going.....that is better than nothing at all.
Yes, there have been a lot of wives that I would like to get a hold of.....lol. But, who knows, maybe some day, she will be here writing to others and giving them advice. Just don't give up hope. When we lose hope, then we don't have anything to cling to and we hit rock bottom. Don't do that, Joe. Keep praying and hoping and believing. I will keep praying too.
God Bless, Sandi
It is not about what you feel should work in your M. It is about doing the work that gets the right results. Do what works!
