NIK, Trust (that is a four letter word right?) I believe we learned (are still learning)to trust each other by being very open and honest with each other. (sounds simple right ) But it was hard to do at first!
We both knew going into our R this time that there were some obsticles each of us were going to have to over come ALONE before we could "be free" to have our R & M. The key is that we have communicated the whole time. Even when there has been something we knew the other person was not going to be thrilled about we still said it. One advantage we have is that we both have decided to put the past behind us (neither one of us were angels). We have learned from the mistakes we made in the past and we are both dedicated to giving our R & M a fresh start. Thanks to the help of Maya, Suzyblues (anitasues), Dazed and others that visited my original post in Newcomers I learned that I do not want my old M back, I/we deserve so much more. We do not concentrate on the past and think too much about what ifs and this was the way it used to be. Another thing I think helps is that we are friends, when we encounter a rough patch, that does not deal directly with our R, we put on our friends hat and deal with the problem at hand. I guess in a way we are rewriting our destany.
Halo
Being happy doesn't mean everything's perfect.
It means you've decided to see beyond the imperfections.
