Another comment about the trust between us - or mis-trust. My wife thinks I want to change the situation with me and my family. In fact she is sure of it and stated so and this is one of the things she doesn't trust me about. She says eventually I am going to want to "go back" to the way things were before. I don't understand the statement. Things will never be like they were. What's done is done. I DO want to stay with her. I KNOW she will leave as she has threatened a bunch of times if I go back on my word. Three years later and I haven't and I have no thoughts or plans or intention of. Yet still - the sword is carefully and clearly strung in full view above my head.
How many years will it take ? Can it ever be removed ? That is my concern.
