Half Way There

[Albuquerque]

I like ImLIN's perspective. I see a lot of "rules" on this forum and I agree with having this forum to help each other out. But I strongly believe that there are exceptions to everything. We LBSs know our spouses better than anyone. And even though they've been taken over by aliens, they still hold some of their core deep inside. So what works for one may not work for another. If anyone reads my thread, I've already knowingly broken several CORE rules and it hasn't been a negative (YET). It just felt like it was the right thing for me to do. And I did it NOT to help my husband but to help MYSELF feel like I've done what I needed to do. Punkin, you know your husband best. If you feel he needs to know the door is open, then I would say do it. But don't do it as you suggested which was leaving it in the form of a question. Don't ASK him to come home. Just find a way to subtly let him know its an option and maybe follow it up with some other slightly related topic about you growing or something. That way, it doesn't end up with HIM on the spot but the message is definitely received. Others may have different perspectives but that's how I see it.
