That's what people keep saying to me too, that working through personal issues now will mean that no matter what happens in the R, I will be a better person at the end, it sounds that is true for you.

Aren't we all a little fake in our relationships? How honest are we really with our partners? Often we don't share feelings and worries so that we don't hurt the other person, but doesn't that make us fake?
As you said you thought you were doing the right things, your intentions were good. Don't be too hard on yourself, you will face your fears in your own time.

But of course you will, it will just be in your own time. You cannot move on because it is the "right time" or because your H did, you will move on when you are ready to do so.
We are here for you, keep posting and keep working on yourself and your sons.
