You are not jumping in and I do sympathize with you. I was seperated from my h for over six months and we didn't spend anytime as a family during that time. He was even reluctant to attend a special day we had previously planned for son that fell during that time (imagine having to convince a father that it's ok to be at the same place as the mother of his son sharing the sons special day)
my complaints I'm sure seem minimal to those who are still facing the threat of d, seperation and/or op. I too used to peek into piecing and think to myself, why are they complaining? their spouse came back didn't they? All I can say is though some feelings subside with the return of the wayward spouse other feelings that we aren't prepared for come up and or linger.
