Ever since the day following the bomb drop, I have carefully avoided practically any type of pursuing behavior. But what about when she sees me reading relationship books, or sees charges for marriage coaching and such on our credit card bills? Couldn’t this be seen by her as pursuing behavior, since I’m working on saving the marriage when that's not what she wants? I don’t expect any issues with the spending itself, as all our finances have always been joint, and we have never had disagreements about money, it's more the message it sends that concerns me.
M: A really long time. Crisis: 5 years. She's still worth it.
Life is never made unbearable by circumstances, but only by lack of meaning and purpose. -Viktor Frankl
