rocked, I'll post more another time when I can write more.

for now just let me chip in that the whole conumdrum in piecing is that you detach in a way from your detached self. You draw on inner strength when your spouse withdrew from you, but to REALLY fix the M and be whole again as a couple, many would feel the wholeness does mean being "one" again in many ways.

So, you do give up parts of yourself in this process. That's what the give and take in Ms are about. Parts which may have been badly hurt and rebuilt by yourself in darker times. And the giving is much, much harder this time round ...

But that's love and M's at the end of the day isn't it? There's not much more precious that that in our world, and even simpler things do not come without risk. So ... you risk. And you will be ok whatever results you get.
