Busting, it is great to hear from you! I was wondering what was going on with you. Somehow I knew that you would come back with the positive update that things are moving in the right direction. I agree with Job, it looks like he is slowly reconnecting. He must be one of these people who have very difficult time to admit their mistakes. He just doesn’t know how to proceed.

I also expected you to react the way you reacted to this development. I probably would be the same way, angry and scarred at the same time. I know you probably want him to give you yes and no answers to everything, but he hasn’t figured out where he is at this time. I think there is a strong pull for him to rejoin the family, but there must also be enormous amount of gilt. I’m curious what that text from OW was about. If he said that the affair is over and they are not friends, what kind of business does he still have with her? Is she pursuing him? Does he keep occasional communication to help him not to feel too guilty on both ends? It is like he justifies for himself that the affair was not that big of a deal.

Anyway, I’m just so happy for you. The things are progressing! I know there are difficult times ahead, but I also know that you will figure it out.
