No doubt in my mind. I'm making some real positive changes in myself and I can see that she notices them; they in turn are giving her the courage to make some of her own changes. We still aren't intimate but I'm OK with that for as long as it needs to be that way. This divorce is turning into more of a separation at this point. And I'm letting her take the lead on this, not pushing, letting her see that I will be OK so I'm not guilting her into anything. Detaching is not so simple when our lives are so intertwined; We're adopting our grandson, problems with our daughter, etc.

Yeah, couples counseling is definitely something that will happen. I'm getting counseling on my own right now and its doing wonders for me. I told her I don't want to go back to where we were but want to rebuild a better, stronger relationship and thats what we are working on.

Started getting the house set up for her move back home; start moving her stuff in this Saturday. And I just can't keep this stupid smile off my face!
