Hi sweetie. So much going through your head, right? How could there not be?
You know, when the bottom drops out of your world, it understandably leaves you off balance. And even when the pieces are beginning to be put back together, you are still trying to find your footing.
He is trying to navigate through this, just as you are. But, you get to do it without being in crisis.
I know you have all kinds of questions. Is he recommitting? If I let him back into my heart, will it get broken again? Can he become the husband I need?
I also know it is so hard, when the physical stuff is there, for you to want more.
The thing is this. He is giving as much as he can right now. As much as he is capable of. The talking and verbalizing his feelings part, is really the very hardest part for an MLCer.
The way to know how he feels at this point is consistent, positive actions from him.
This is a critical part for both of you.
Raine, there are no guarantees in life. Whether you are with him or someone else.
So, you need to decide if you can dig in a bit more.
He is very fragile. But so are you. He has fears just like you have.
This all just takes time. Time for him to live with his changes. Time for him to reconcile what he is going through and to figure out what got him to this point.
I know you fear getting hurt and you should protect your heart. But, leave it open enough for the possibilities of what it can be for the two of you.
