T0324 - Slow and steady

[Heart14]

T, I'm so glad things are still improving. You sound very strong and confident. You rock!

That's where I think piecing is more difficult because we are trying to form new relationships while dealing with working on old stuff and healing from whatever happened during separation.

I was thinking about this today. When H and I were first piecing the pain was so raw and little things seemed to ignite my fears. Everything between us felt fragile. One day I'd think we were doing great and the next I thought he was out the door again. Now the pain is more of a dull ache that rarely flares up and we are back on even ground. It somewhat boggles my mind how one day things just seemed to click into place and the fear really dissipated.

I'm so impressed by how you've handled everything, T0. I'm sure many people on these boards will benefit from your advice.
