oh Dawn, I do see your H's actions as showing progress thru the tunnel. How difficult this must have been for you. I think you handled it so well.

I don't know much but Dawn from the things I've read about MLC, it seems as if your H has come to that part of his MLC journey when he realizes that the affair, spending money, partying, have not made his fears or pain go away. I think he can see now that you were not the cause of his pain, and that in fact, you are his "thread" holding him to sanity. I've read that after replay, comes depression, but have also read that each MLC journey is different. But I can honestly see how a MLCer realizing that the things he or she did to try to ease their pain did not work and in fact only devastated the person who loved them the most, would be totally depressing.

This must be so hard for you, but I think it's really a good sign. Hang in there Dawn Marie. He's going to need a lot of understanding from you to get thru this part. I'm praying for you too.
