You are so right KD. I have heard everything my H said, agreed that I needed to make some changes, apologized and asked for forgiveness. I have read a lot so that I can come to terms with my abandonment issues, etc. I'm definitely a work in progress, but am quite confident that I'm not the woman he left. Unfortunately, although he has acknowledged that he was more than 50% (his perception, not mine) responsible for the breakdown of our marriage and has said that he forgives me for my shortcomings, he still spews at me. It's almost as if he has to keep his resentment alive in order for him to continue self justifying. He knows he left a good woman. He used to brag to his friends about me. I may have contributed to his breakdown (I'm not perfect) but this really is all about him. Can you tell today is better than yesterday? I have my head screwed on straight.
