Not to hijack, but you touched on a huge fear of mine there. I don't want my H to come home too early out of fear of losing me/home/family. I want him to have the time and space to figure himself out first. So I worry that my pulling back and digging my heels in about not spending time together could muddle that. Yet, at the same time, that may be the alone time he needs. If only we all had the clear cut answers!
I love how open and honest your W seems to be, she seems to know what she needs to do, and she is telling you so. That is a far cry from a year ago. Hang in there Cali, this is a new phase for you. Just think of it as that, you will work through the kinks. I have no doubt.
I clearly remember your Halloween last year. Didn't you guys go at it in between houses as S went to the doors? I hope this year is much more enjoyable for you
