How To Be A Man Only A Fool Would Leave Take #2

[HPoirot]

Hello all. Thank you for checking up on me. I decided to take a break from everything here and then I let 5 months go by. I should not have done that as the accountability and camaraderie this board provides makes a huge difference.

Even so, in those months I made some good things happen, made some mistakes, got more detached, blocked my XW from my phone, gained 50 pounds (mistake), and more.

I was rolling onward to a better life in Florida... being the big planet... and then I got a weird email from XW this morning...

Hi HP,

If you are willing, I would like to talk about us, our marriage and how we can become a family again.

Are you willing to see if we have a chance again?

Surprising... but I was ready for it, knew how to respond, and I did...

"What has changed XW?"

Her response was not entirely unexpected. I was going to ignore it b/c I'm done and keep moving on... but then I reconsidered.

So I'll bring it here in a new thread later because I don't want to make a bad decision. That and hopefully it will help new people here in sitches that seem impossible like mine did to me.

Thank you all again. It's very good and very hard to be back here. I feel afraid to even read my old posts and to see so many new people here is heartbreaking.

I'll try to catch up with all of you as I can and keep going.

Just keep going.
