Love your attitude today - positive thinking is powerful isn't it?
You know, I decided a long time ago that I was going to keep the mindset that my H and I will work this out eventually. (Much to the chagrin of my MIL and others who see the glass half empty - not 2/3 full like I do - )
If, for some reason, that it doesn't work out, I won't hurt any less - so I'm going for it with everything I've got.
That is what makes being patience easier. I let myself talk in future tense with my H. I plan everything with him in mind as always whether it be household stuff, kid stuff, family activities, whatever...
Now, life isn't perfect (if it were I wouldn't be here - LOL!) and there are moments of uncertainty, sadness and all of those other emotions, but I can deal with them.
Try it - like you said, what have you got to lose? And you have everything to gain.
I find that this attitude keeps me from stressing out, it makes me more natural when H is around, and that keeps him happier too.
You go girl!
(I may copy this to my own thread - just as a reminder to myself - LOL!)
