We have friends that are separated for almost a year and she wants her H to come home. She asked my H what he thought she should do, coming from a mans perspective. H said that since today is a special day for them she should offer dinner with her and the kids, and at dinner she should say we're going home now to have ice cream and you're welcome to join us.
Oh wow, that is the same wording I would say to my H while he was all fogged up for so many years! Now he is giving that as advice to someone else. Too funny!!!
My H also told me that this friend needs to move on with her life and stop just waiting for her H to come home. She needs to keep moving forward and let her H come along if he chooses.
There is the words straight from the horses mouth of an MLCer.
It's so odd to hear my H say all that, especially knowing that when I finally got over the acute trauma of his MLC that is almost exactly what I did.
Live your life while you are still living. Riding the trail less traveled.
