I am so proud of you! Certainly, stamina, however, I see so much more within you. You're strength surpasses anything I've known.
The one thing that hit me while reading your posts.... and I think we are on the same note here too, when I say this: It's good for you to be steady, however, do not make it easy for your H. By this, I mean don't help him "fix" things, allow him to work his own way back to you. Yes, I know, he's taking his own sweet time, and yes, I'd be impatient too, heck, I wouldn't be able to do this at all.... nature of the beast I guess, anyway, my gut tells me, if you help him with his work, you'll weaken him.
No, I don't understand it completely, but all I'm saying, it's like a chick you watch break from it's shell... if you intervene, you stand a good chance of loosing the chick, it won't be strong enough to survive on it's own. You need this man to be able to stand on his own two feet.... just as you are doing now.
You want him to be on equal ground, and be able to stand on it too. He wasn't there to help you gain your own ground, and you own that ground.... allow him the time and space (as you already have) to own his ground too.
I hope this makes some sense.... it's been a long day for me already, and the week's excitement hasn't even started yet.
Take care, and keep up the good work!
That needs to be repeated. It is so spot on. Thank you.
