I wish my D was old enough to make remarks like that!! Unfortunately she thinks "mommy and daddy still love each other and just need some time". I wish that was true.
I gave him the letter tonight. He put it in his coat pocket. I'm pretty sure he will read it, I don't doubt that. I'm still not expecting any response.
Do I think I could trust him and be happy with him? 100% absolutely as long as he was willing to put in the time and effort as well. I would be committed like no wife before me (or maybe I should just BE committed lol).
I guess my big thing is, and what my therapist wants me to think about is who is he really and truly as a father and a husband? Do I just have this picture in my head of who I wanted him to be and he's not and that's why I pulled away from him? And now am I picturing who he CAN be? But I can't make him BE anything, that's up to him.
So I start fresh tomorrow. No contact, going dark, I have to learn what "dispassionate" is. Back to read DR one more time. I pray the letter will touch his heart in some way but I'm not counting on it. I just have to remember he's losing out on two great gals and someone else will be very lucky to have us.
