dear t- yes I too experience the same hopeful words in songs, through sermons and even the Word. AND i believe that if our x's choose to face stuff then yes my friend we could be restored and it would be better - adn different.
i have learned (and as you know am learning) that moving forward, dropping the rope and doing for us is the BEST thing for both of you.. for ur x (so he can't use us for a crutch anymore) and for you -- so you can not hurt and can grow. I DO NOT believe that we should SIT and not live - even dating.... it is all good and all ok. (at least to me) I have VERY strong moral convictions when it comes to dating.... so that part of my heart is gaurded --
anyway - it is like i have read on here before.. Even if the door is closed - remember we can still choose to open it. all those sayings and things.. they are good life choices.
keep living ....I hope God does restore - shoot it would be awesome.. but remember they have to allow GOD to move in their lives.. we are willing... they are still stuck in thier muck.
truly care my friend.
