I could not put this book down. This book was the icing on the cake and really hit home as to how I SHOULD have treated myself and my W.
I might get a 2x4, but I don't care. I'm very familiar with all the advice given, lists of DO NOTS, etc. But I apologized to my W for 3 things. It was a sincere apology, formed after reading all 3 books and a theme through out all 3 books that I felt responsible for. All 3 were sent as "No response/approval/or praise needed". I expressed my feelings and now it is up to God to decide how it is received. I'm GAL and I've taken final responsibility in MY actions that contributed to my failures as a husband. It's up to her now to figure out herself and the path of life she chooses to take. Just want her to be happy.
For me, I'm moving forward without looking back and KNOW that I will become a better man because of all that I've faced. Am I giving up on my M? No. However, I can't do one thing to make her change HER mind and I'm not going to try. If it happens, it was meant to be. Knowing that I will be a better person to myself, possibly my W, or any future companion is all I need now. I love my W, I miss her, but I didn't tell her and I'm not going to. SHE KNOWS.
Thank you to everyone's advice and recommendation of those books. It's really great information. Rather than dwell on the Woe Woe is Me, I'm just going to keep working on my life positively.
