Good for you!

I just don’t know that she even wants to reconcile. I’m 5.5 months in and while her attitude seems to be improving, she can be just as nasty as ever.

I truly don’t know how much more I am willing to take. I feel like it would be easier st this point to just build a life with someone else, but it’s not really what I want and I know it’s not what’s best for my son.

She said divorce again today when she was upset with me and said that I’m just moving it further along. All I did was let her know it wasn’t healthy for her parents to undermine my parenting our son.

But what does just giving up and walking away look like?

I’m truly just tired of the stress and aggravation of it, but I guess that’s where loving detachment comes into play. This is the hardest thing I’ve ever had to do and I buried my mom at 18 and raised my brother since.

A little bit! 6 months ago I loved her more than me. I now put me and my kids first. I still love her.

This new "I love you" isn't hurting our reconciliation. Consider our partners already put themselves first! She gets after leaving me she needs to rebuild my trust. I get for what drove her away I need to rebuild her trust. Hopefully someday we'll each feel safe putting each other first again.
