Yay..you're such an inspiration. Really, you always manage to pick yourself up and turn a negative into a positive. Sure I forgot about the MLC'ers only thinking about themselves. I remember how my H would brush past me as if I wasn't even there to be the centre of attention. Only now, 9 months later, have I felt comfortable drawing some attention to my needs..taking one small step at a time, when I feel its necessary, I remind him that I have feelings and an opinion and need some validation. He really is hopeless in that area, always has been, but he even admitted things are so much better between us, and there is a definite softening in him.
I always come here hoping to read some good news, and I guess there is, there has been lots of hope and small steps and its definitely wonderful that H is reconnecting with the boys.
