What does this mean?- the WH's regrets?

[Piano]

Gatsby, I think we are talking cross purposes about you wanting to save your M or not... I think you DO want to save your marriage, but you want to do it with integrity and self-respect (ie - you want him to come back of his own accord).

This is great.

And with this attitude, I bet your GAL attempts will be more successful that most of us here, cos you don't sound needy.

But I do have one reservation : does your H know you haven't shut the door on your M completely? You wouldn't want to make this look like it's what YOU want.
That would be detrimental.

Also, can I ask. When he told you he wanted to leave, what was your reaction? Did you do the usual beg, plead, try to reason, scream stuff?
