This week, my husband has seemed to have a change of heart. Says he wants us to get better, and has been smiling at me, touching me, and playing with the kids, and we made love. Whereas before, he was avoiding me, repulsed by me, and abandoning responsibility.
It's only been 18 months since our selling the business, and 6 months since bomb drop, but he HAS been going through some intense counseling. Could it be even remotely possible that he is nearing the other side of the u-shape this early?
I do believe that he wants things to get better, but he also has not taken any accountability, or recognized his hurtful comments. He has said that he just wants us to be nice to each other. He is still looking at OW facebook page a dozen times a day. I don't think he has ever acted on this limerence, but he is utterly obsessed. It's a fight between what feels good in his mind, and what is good, as in doing the right thing.
All in all, the scenario is not worse. I'm just trying to read where he is on this nightmarish journey. Any thoughts from you pros?
