Piecing - Round 1

[Denver_2010]

Angel was talking about my W and I dealing with my step son. Some parenting issues. I don't think that she talked about my R with W. Just want to clear that up.

Thanks Angel. We do do that. Unfortunately, SS has not been responding well to either of us lately. We've knocked heads about how to deal with that. He is on an IEP for behavioral issues at school. So he's pretty tough to deal with sometimes. I haven't talked about it much on the board, but it's definitely a stress between W and I and always has been. It can also be exhausting for both of us which causes additional tension.

SBH - I'm glad that you saved yourself, however it had to happen. I don't think that it matters what others might think, you have to do what you have to do to be happy. Towards the end of my separation with W, I really did reach a point where I finally felt that I was going to be okay with either outcome. It was at that point that I realized that my old R with my W had completely died. That realization has helped me now, looking at my current R with my W, as something brand new. That helps me move beyond most of what has happened between us. It helps me forgive her, and I think that it helps her forgive me.

Anyway, I would still love to hear how everything with you and your W transpired. If and when you ever feel like posting about it. I understand, of course, if your feeling is that you'd rather not.

Take care.
