Also, I am yet to see a sitch on these boards restored through the power of prayer alone (SGCTOX, how about you?)

What happened with the rest of the convo anyway?? It was pretty full-on !! Is that a breakthrough for you two, have you not had R talks like that before?

Ali--

The rest of the convo is here now. This was a huge conversation. We have not discussed our R at all since the bomb. Even our brief stint at MC did more rehashing than focusing on current and moving forward.

I have pretty much let go. I am prepared to move on without him on our lives, but I will not ignore my marriage vows.

I don't understand the astrology thing you posted about, but I do not think we were having a power struggle. It could have been, especially if I had reacted the way he expected me to. In the past, in a deep convo like that, I would have become emotional, crying, yelling, doing whatever it took to gt his attention. Instead, I stayed very calm, looked him in the eyes, did not use defensive body language, spoke in a low, even tone and never raised my voice, an although my eyes filled with tears, I never cried.

I know you are not religious, but understand this--when a person is willing to fully turn their own life over to Gods, it will affect all who are in association with them. the changes that it makes in a person--mentally, emotionally, spiritually and even physically--are patently clear to see.

I met with my pastor about 30 minutes after this convo with DH and pastor was amazed at my calm and strength, despite what he knew had to have been a very emotional encounter with DH. He sad that watching me grow in Christ has been a blessing for him as a pastor, as he clearly sees the love of the Lord shining through me. Others have also told me the same thing. I just know that I am happy, at peace with my life, and content to wait upon the favor of the Lord while living my life according to His will.

Living God's blessigns with grace and dignity~
