I find Bill's and Deb's perspective to be so helpful. Many times in this unfamiliar experience we all wing it, trying to figure out the best way to make the right decisions. Renew the relationship,
Hearing both sides of how they got where they are, what was sacrificed, what was tried helps me learn what to seek as I grow. I doubt spouse will come back. But Bill's words of "Do NOT Settle" ring in my ears.
And I tell you reading
"You see, she is wonderful woman, rich in love and the desire to love others. She is a tremendous mother and a faithful friend. She DESERVED to be treated like the woman that she was. She deserved to be cherished and valued. She deserved to be more important than work, than hobbies, than habits."
sounds like a fairy tale to me until I realize I choose how I'm treated.
You're so beautifully direct, passionate in your beliefs. Savor this experience of growth, of what you need to be the best...
