It wasnt an opportunity lost.. it wasnt the right time. I thought when I read your earlier post.. oh no, not that day.. he had taken a day off and planned what sounded like a romantic day out.. so that was thoughtful and the kind of thing that builds good memories, you wouldnt want to sour that with an R talk.
You've got to pick your moment and there will be others. Perhaps one weekend or evening when your son isnt about?
I still dont 'get' why you are so afraid to voice any feelings or thoughts to Gabe.. he came back and he's still there all this time later.. I think that 'phase' of your R is over and wont be repeated. I see it astrologically.. same for my H, he was in a grip of a powerful Venus-Pluto transit when he met Helen at work, left me and became very withdrawn and obsessive.. he went down, mentally, spiritually, morally... but he's back up because Pluto has moved on by (never to return). I can only say that intuitively I see that Gabe went through something similiar and you too (although I dont know what played out to symbolise it, astrologically)... so thats what comforts me.. I dont know if you can view it that way for yourself.. it was a phase, a rite of passage, a coming of age..
You sound like you are expecting it to all happen again at ANY moment, but I really dont view your R that way hun.
