7 weeks in feels like a lifetime.

It has been a crazy ride. I work 8-5 and my husband works 330am- 2. Our son is home with a babysitter for the summer until school starts. My GAL was joining a fitness group 3x per week to meet new friends and going out once a week with new friends. He cited my time out as putting him on lock down with our son. It is just his perception as he goes out on his free nights and we rotate who babysits.

Anyways- we have had some good steps forward but are not there yet. Last week he said he wants to move out for space and to think. He said he isn't sure what he wants now. I celebrated that shift as we started at "pointless to even try"

I knew something was still stuck and tonight I overhead his phone call with the EA. seems she is starting to tell him no. He is still requesting time with her. That hurts but I am so happy to hear she is pulling away.

Can you tell me more about filling the need of the EA? He is starting to open up around friends or stories but I am unsure how much interest I show. I wait for him to share and laugh/enjoy the story. Then I leave. Sometimes I feel this keeps him seeking outside friendship.

I appreciate your thoughts lovethehub. Can't tell you how your last post really helped ground me.
