Dear hoping, This is such great news! Congratulations! It is natural for you ot question what's happening right now. You have had to protect yourself from hurt so you started to tell yourself your marriage could not be saved. You were trying to come to terms with that reality. And all of a sudden, reality has shifted. I'm sure you're both euphoric, scared, uncertain, cautious and lots of other emotions as well. Honor these feelings, but at the same time, keep DBing. Now that your h realizes that the best thing in the world is you, you can start to have the marriage you've always dreamed of. Oh yes, and don't forget the hard work that will be necessary to keep things on track. Expect your emotions to continue to bounce around and don't be worried about it. Just go through it. We're rooting for you! Michele
I am SO over whelmed by the great support and I am at a loss for words...and the tears are wrecking my face, and I am 10 min late for work!!!!!...but Thank you...I will make the time to respond...my days here are not over just because things look good...without all of you, my m would not be on the right track..
So..I will be back..thank you,Deb for the links..did I have that many!!???
I will close with a few things,and that is dbing is certainly about saving your m,but more about finding and saving yourself...I also have found great things in my journey with God..and I know that is not for everyone..and I am not going to ever be someone who "preaches" that, but it has been an important part of this process..
Again..many,many thanks
Sue
P.s....did not say much about last night, but the new,"old" h has gotten off the "train" (as he put it)of destruction and denial,and realizes how hurtful and wrong he has been. More later...
Hoping...you give me new HOPE! Your first post on your new thread brought tears to my eyes and gives me new hope.

Your positive attitude and your faith in God have been a source of inspiration to me!
I know as you do that God worked to turn your h's heart of stone into one of flesh!!! As God has upheld his Word to you, I have faith that continued prayers regarding the situations on this board will result in many other victories.
And may he continue to bless you with wisdom, self control, joy in trying circumstances and strength to continue on this path of reconciliation.
Sue....you really don't know me, but I've followed your sitch over the past 6+ months....you commented on my sitch last summer. I am thrilled for you.....YOU ARE GETTING WANT YOU'VE WANTED from day one! All you DBing is paying off big time. Great encouragement for the rest of us.
