Thank you job, your wisdom here has been epic. Funny you mention the New M ... as W and I have adopted that, and I have frequently asked her what a New Happy M looks like to her, just to allow discussions and conversation to avoid those pesky false expectations we had early when we were young. And like you said ... she is still working through things in her way, on her own time frame and I can easily give her that space as she does so .... there are some bumps with her, terrified I will leave, having learned to be patient here has helped ... and there are times I have to be firm. Regardless its more about being the rock even now, stability has been paramount as of late.

Sounds like you are full steam ahead now for moving back in together, and I wish you the very best with this.

TY Toots ... yeah its been a long ... long process. But honestly one I needed, in order to learn what I have, become a better person than I ever was and now having a chance at a M where I have a voice, can find peace and happiness in. I do realize how fortunate I am in all this .... not so much for the M and the W waking ... but for going through such a difficult time in my life and emerging stronger than what I was going in, if there is a lesson in all this its that.
