Okay..I think I have the right idea about that. I've used a few Hmmmmm and Let me think about it. Also, taking my time to think over any suggestions he offers to make sure it's something I can commit too or even agree with.
I'm trying hard to be open and forgiving about this situation but I'm still feeling a bit how dare you after how much pain the A caused me.
Last night, I told him that he betrayed me once again by contacting OW and I'm surprised that he would risk his M over a few texts msgs with OW. I used the "this is your mess, how do you plan to fix it?" He said he blocked OW from calling or texting him then deleted her contact info, working hard to catch up on bills, focusing on us, planning things that we can do together and our future. Then I said, Hmmmmm...interesting.
We have a MC session scheduled for Thursday. Should I rehash the past events or focus on my expectations for the future? I'm afraid to reopen those hurtful wounds.
