I agree with you Pup. I see this as being our hurdle. I read somewhere once that the better the marriage prior to an A, the harder it is to recover, because the wayward spouse has to go to such great lengths to justify the A, that most times the marriage just doesn't survive.
I'm trying to be one of those marriages that makes it.
So I think how I'm doing things is the right way for me. Give her the time she needs as long as I can and then the push if she hasn't figured it out by then. Thing is, I think she's figured it out, but she just doesn't know how to get out of it.
Like Saturday, we were sitting having a glass of wine at the winery and there were a couple times when she just looked at me and almost started to say something, but then couldn't. I've noticed that exact thing more times than I can count in the last few months. And in the car on the way home from the winery when I put my hand on her leg and she would move her hand down to where my hand was, it was like she was just dying to grab my hand and hold it, but just couldn't bring herself to do so. So she would "kinda" hold one of my fingers, but not totally grab it.
So what's your opinion Pup on whether I should contact her or not when S16 and I go away for a long Easter weekend?
