I don't trust that he has enough strength of will to come back.
It's interesting. A lot of ladies here - me included - ponder this. I have a lot of reasons to believe H won't confront himself and work this through. That's been my opinion of him for a long time. It was me who (thought I had to) drive us forwards, because he didn't seem to. But lately I have started to wonder about my role in this dynamic. This quote in Passionate Marriage hit home with me:
"If your partner thinks that you're trying to drag him forward into your version of happiness and a better life, you make it safe for him to "dig in his heels" and remain complacent or resistant. When you stop pressuring your partner to change, it pushes you to clarify what you want and what you're willing to do to get it."
Maybe there is strength of will...and it will resurface now that we've learned to back the h!@& off?
