Um... okay guys... he said that we could start counseling after his trip to Colorado. So it'd be August-ish.
He didn't seem too thrilled. He seemed resigned, in a way.
As I remember it:
WH is getting ready to leave. He's still on the couch, though, looking down during the whole exchange.
WH: So... (sigh) I'm sorry that I talked to you about the yoga stuff the other day. I... guess I won't do that anymore.
This doesn't make sense to me, even now. I didn't want him to talk to me if he didn't want to make 'us' work. Our communication is still off, I think.
Me: Okay.
WH: And...(sigh) I think that we should probably do counseling.
(5 second pause)
WH: I don't think we should start until after my trip to Colorado.
Me: Okay.
WH: And I don't think that we should talk about this sort of thing outside of counseling. We should just stay the way we have been outside of counseling.
Me: Okay.
His phone rang, and we had a short exchange about who had called him.
He was still very heavy in his demeanor, didn't look at me in the eyes, and he said he'd see me Monday.
So. I'm not over the moon. But I am happy. I think. It's where we would need to start.
