Looks like we are on a similar time line, too. It really is a daily struggle. Overall, I am doing pretty well most of the time but have those days and this time of year I have been struggling more obviously with the holidays and have had more teary times than I have in a while. It really seems that if H and I can get through this huge, ugly hurdle in the long run things could be even better. Of course, there are no guarantees but I am with you in hoping someday he realizes the effort I have put forth and my commitment. Right now I am doing this more for my kids, though, to be honest.
I am so sick of being "married" to a rebellious teen, though, that I want to scream some days. Trying to let it (and him) just go and be for right now . . .
