Thanks Old Pilot,

Good question. Well can we ever really 100% know what's in someone else's heart? The hardest lesson for me to learn through this whole thing was that the only person we ever REALLY know is ourself.

I do believe him because the change in him is so very drastic. He's a very weak man. From the beginning he has kept his distance because being accountable to Me, Kids or Friends was more than he could handle. So he ran. He stayed where it was safe with people who wouldn't question or ask the hard stuff. People who really didn't matter, so I guess he used them as well. Now he has confronted his choices, apologized, and even said he is sorry for all of the hurt he caused.

I am in a very good place in my life right now and I have no intention of just saying OK I'm back in. I have so many options open to me. If he were to be trying to scam me in someway I think that eventually I'd figure it out. I know now that I am a heck of a lot smarter then I thought I was when he left.
