How did you know when your X was 100% for sure wanting to piece and rebuild?

My current story is 'surviving' and the last few days have been, well, very hopeful.

You never know 100%

you just have to take the chance and hope. without hope you have nothing

Doc is right - you never will know 100%. What's more, think about it - you never knew 100% in the first place. If you think you did, well, you were apparently a bit confused....

That's OK, though. NONE of us EVER knew 100% - or we wouldn't be HERE, would we?

OTOH, getting back to The High 90's ain't so bad. wink

I could live with that. smile I'm not sure where to rate at the moment, but certainly higher than the standard 50% all new and re-kindled Rs have at their beginnings.

Every new day you build upon the success of the previous day.
If the previous day wasn't successful...then learn from it.
And never fall back into your old bad habits.

Personally, I didn't know for SURE that my H wanted to rebuild until many months after he said he was ready to recommit to the marriage. The trick, of course, is to spend every day of those months acting "as if" you are in the relationship you'd like to be in.

the fact that you are considering yourself perhaps ready means you are thinking positively. COntinue to grow in that positive (PMA), optimistic spirit and Go with it!

Thanks T.

I haven't felt this good in some time. Sure I had those moments where I felt 'great' only to stumble, but this is different. XW asked me how I was doing this morning and I had no other answer than "I am awesome". lol, think she might subject me to drug testing. grin
