After 15 months of challenges, sadness, anger, acceptance and all the other feelings it looks like we are on a path back to a better marriage.
Today my W told me she wants to move back in, that she wants to wear her ring again, and that she hopes that the challenges that we have faced bring forth a stronger connection and marriage than we previously had.
Of course, I'm glad to finally hear that and I suspected this is where it was going for the past couple months. I'm grateful that I've had the patience to let things play out so she could sort herself out.
So many of the situations/timelines have played out as expected based on what the Vets have said as well as from Michelle's books.
I did ask her if there was a PA or EA at all and she said no it was never about that. She just wasn't in a good place and ran like she always does. She's in counselling to learn how to deal with those things better and to allow herself to be more vulnerable. We talk honestly and openly about lots of things now and we both feel more connected to each other.
We still have a long road ahead and more work to be done but we will be traveling that road together. I'm grateful for that.
For the newcomers on here: I can't preach patience enough. LIsten to the Vets and try not to make YOUR decisions based on emotions.
