Looks like we are going to be starting MC at the end of the month! We have both been doing our IC and that has been working well for us. H booked us an appt for the end of the month with his counselor. Kind of caught me off guard! I thought he was going to prolong going to MC! lol. I think it's a good sign that he initiated it, this from the guy who doesn't usually initiate things!
He seems to really like her and he says he feels comfortable talking to her.. so that is a good start. I am a little worried that she may be biased to our situation as it is his counselor. I will give it a try and see if I like her. Her approach seems pretty unique, so I am interested in seeing what she is like.
It will be nice to start the counseling together. Does it make sense for me to continue with my individual counselor as well?
Y'all would be proud of me! I would love nothing more than to have H move back in right away. However, after reading everyone's comments I started thinking more about it.
We had a talk and it sounded like he was thinking of moving in by the holidays.
I told him that if he decided to move back in that I wanted him to think hard about it, that it was an important decision. I told him that if he did move in that I wanted him to be very certain about it, as I couldn't go through all of this again. I also know that he is worried he may be inconveniencing his brother by staying at his place. I told him today that I don't want his decision to be based on that. He kind of laughed and said it was for other reasons too obviously.
We are going to discuss it at the end of the month at our first marriage counseling appointment since reconciling!!! I am getting excited. Things are moving in a good direction for us!
