This is a question that will get some giggles: what exactly is a thread? I see "topic" at the top of the page, when I was politely warned by sgctox that I was nearing the end of the line, I went to "new topic". Hope thus to have stated a new thread, but since I'm not really sure what the latter is, I'm not really sure full stop.

We have come quite a distance in a few months. This forum has kept me relatively sane and increased my computer skills.

I'm a bit confused about the "changes" debate, though.Personally, I know now (thanks to the hair-whitening shock my H gave me) that things between us needed to change: the balance of power (decision power, respect of each partner as an adult person apart from the rôles of Mam and Dad, time spent on the couple, real exchange of views, making time and place for intimacy...)etc. But I can't see why he needed to reject me so fully and crush my confidence, then flee the scene of the crime. i suppose it'll become clear in time.

I'm more than willing to evolve and change, for myself and for my children and for him. I don't see how it would be wrong to change now. There are always lessons to be learned, even if it's the hard way. only imbeciles never change their minds.

You just have to go slowly. Not rush into things headlong.
