Long story short, great time together mostly, but her plate extremelyfull. She decides it's time to clean her plate and move on with her somewhat left behind career, cleaning me off the plate as well.
I've been DB'ing successfully for a couple of weeks and seem to see signs of it working. (I realize how short this is) Other than me sleeping on the couch we're having pretty normal daily interaction, especially around the kids, minus any affection (though there have been a few hugs in the last week, generated by us both).
I'm curious what other's have experienced regarding the following. She can be a very strong and independent woman (a reason I really love her). So having made her decision to leave after the school year is over to attempt to resurrect her career, she'd indicated it made her feel much better and she is working to get her plate cleaned off. I know I need to hold back and not push counseling or anything else for that matter. My fear is though that if she is thinking my lack of discussing it means we're moving forward with her plan, everything is fine, and she'll never show any interest in counseling to provide an opportunity for us to work on it. Does that make sense? Anyone with any experience to share on this?
