Never got around to writing that part 3.... at this time it has become a moot point, as it seems like our M is going in a different direction.
A week ago, we were doing OK, then H mentioned that he needs to go again to OW's country. I was crushed, but tried to recover and then assured him that I promised not to be difficult regarding his work and that I trusted him to do the right thing.
Angel,
You guys have this exactly backwards. It is your husband's job, at this point, to reassure YOU in the relationship. If he can't see that -- and if you can't -- I don't know what to tell you.
He's playing you, and yet YOU are trying to reassure HIM that you're not "paranoid." There's something horribly wrong with that.
