Puppy,

I am so happy for you. I know that you will get a lot out of Retrouvaille. All it takes is two people who want to make the effort. I learned so much about my husband by reading his answers to their questions. I lived with this man for 28 years, but had very little insight into his feelings.

I would caution you to be careful in this time leading up to Retro. My husband and I found the time before Retro to be a minefield of good and bad. We'd have great days, and then an awful fight. We were unable to really put the hostility to bed until they taught us how. Of course, you have developed good ability to control your actions and words. That really is the most important thing.
