A new thread, a new outlook.....

[Can it work]

Hey MsM

Yeah our lives did change a lot. More so after the birth of Wee Man I suppose. We used to go out as a couple fairly often before my W was pregnant. After Wee Man came along though we stopped going out as a couple so often since one of us would usually stay home to look after him. I was always keen to get back in to going out as a couple but for some reason, when we did, we didn't get on as well any more. My W was convinced that we never got on when we went out together but that just isn't the case. Everyone used to be so jealous of us because we had such an excellent relationship when we were out together. Still, I tried to persevere with us going out together but in the end that was our downfall. She was getting too drunk and flirting too much and I couldn't accept her acting like that. Turns out she couldn't accept me not being able to accept that so she left.

If we were to get back together I think it's essential that we're able to socialise together once again. That's where I think building up this friendship may help. She needs to believe that she can enjoy spending time with me. I'm not even going to bother speculating why we suddenly didn't get on after she gave birth as that time is behind us now. The only way to go from here is onwards.
