My divorce busters coach felt strongly that it would be a positive thing if DH and I could spend time together as a family. She stressed that I left and filed for divorce and things had gotten so acrimonious between us, that positive, healthy family time would be a good thing. I am really trying to follow her advice.

My situation is a bit complicated because the lines between WAS and LBS are blurred here. DH and I have switched roles. I strongly agree that begging and pleading and relationship talks are not the way to handle this, at all. He needs to initiate all of that. But I think I may have to extend a friendly olive branch and show him that we can create happy memories without me acting like an angry raving lunatic (and I did act like an angry, raving lunatic for a while there. It wasn't justified, but it also wasn't completely without reason.)
