Tryin-

LOL! Mine can have the dog. I'd rather laugh too, and that is definitely something I'm trying to do more of!

I'm starting to feel like I'm approaching doormat status, but I keep looking back to the wise Sandi's earlier comment, and I try to understand where my wife is. I know this is not the time for me to "air" my grievances. She is extremely fragile, and I can see that, so I know it's not a game.

I will have no REGRETS. I have laid it all on the table, and she knows what I want. I want my wife and I want my family. However, that being said, she also knows at this point that I have not forgotten how to stand up for myself (she is the only one who has ever had any power over me). She knows I will fight for US, but I won't be walked on. Period.

FAMILY---I'm with you tryin. Our R suffers, but our F dynamic is amazing. We co-parent amazingly together, no matter how far gone we are. I firmly believe that God doesn't make mistakes and knew what he was doing with the infertility/adoption and creation of our family.

"So you're saying there's a chance (one of my fave movies)." Yes, I just have to keep working on me, and my path. However (and maybe I'm terribly arrogant in this) she knows, deep down, that I have not been a terrible husband to her. I think she is justifying what she has done (the A). She seems to try to find anything she can that I do wrong, and I know I can do things better, but I am at the point now, this is about ME and MY S, and all bets are off.

Keep laughing, you have a lot to be happy about. Tough for me to say, but I truly believe that there are big things in store for you and me.
