Hey DQ: Yes, still loving the new job. smile Lots of very welcomed challenges for me. I'm glad to hear you are working again too. Yay! laugh

It took both Mrs. Cinco and I time to make our love work again with passion. The best part is that she is happier now than I have seen her in... I can't even remember when.

There is still resistance from her but now she *will* open herself to me. It is so wonderful when she does open. Again I know that our ST has played a part in this. By having that neutral voice urging her on, challenging her to try to see things differently. Bringing us together again.

Also my opening myself to her, being honest with her about my weakness/addiction. She never knew how baffling it was for me to feel so out of control. Wanting something but not knowing what that something was. Wanting to feel alive and fulfilled yet feeling so empty and alone.

It was intimacy with her that was missing and my own fears of rejection that kept us from finding one another. I love sharing myself with her as I do now.
