You can't do anything when they're in that place. You have to ride it out. And the best way to do that is improve yourself, GAL, and detach. Many things can take them out of the fog, and a new improved you is one of them. But, it really is on their timeline, not the LBS.


Thanks Maika.

I think everyone here knows how hard it is to let go and move on, when all we want to do is fix it and make the marriage work.

Every day, I slowly get better, but every day I also think is one step further away from rebuilding.

But hearing her say the other day that her walls were coming down, to me, signals the possibility to future discussion.

Or did I read that situation entirely wrong, and her saying that means nothing? (believe nothing they say and 50% of what they do?)
