Weekend went well as I was busy with coaching and didn’t spend any time at home. Today my son and I attended church and he spent the day with me at the golf course.
I got home from the golf course and left right away without announcing where I was going. Once I got home later that night I could tell she had been crying. This week I have been doing 180’s, not much communication, ignoring most calls and text, and busy as crap with my job.
I noticed she had been drinking a little more just about every night. Tonight she was drinking as well. She cornered me to give me a letter she had written. She broke down crying and the letter basically admits that she feels sorry for all the lies, betrayal, and pain she has caused her entire family. She seems remorseful and she has been reading several self-help books this week. What surprised me the most is that she has been reading spiritual literature as well.
My response was, I’m not buying it right away. I told her it will take time for her to prove this to me and that she should continue to sleep in the other room. She claims she is done talking to the OM but I didn’t let her explain and I told her I wouldn’t be discussing OM at any point anytime soon.
Do you guys think I handled this well? I’m seriously not in any rush to jump back into her arms. She claims she wants to rebuild our marriage and that we have to build a new relationship. The letter seems heartfelt and almost desperate to an extent of making our marriage work. She claims we owe it to our history and our kids to make our relationship work.
Is having her go back to the other room maybe to tough due to her crying. She is not an emotional person and rarely cries. It seems to be sincere in what she states in the letter. On the other hand she is extremely intelligent and a very very good writer. Why wouldn’t she just sit down and tell me this instead of writing it in a letter?
