Lesson from this board...remove "just" from your vocabulary to clarify things.
Don't discount the power of "and."
I got the ILYBINILWY talk. The I want a divorce talk. Yes. I believe that was what she was feeling at that moment. Walls to me and open windows to OM. Of course that is what you will feel.
Is that the sum total of the story? Ha. Just? Ha.
How did our W/H arrive there? perhaps only useful to understand -> What has to happen to NOT be there?
In plowing through books on affairs, male/female dynamics, communications, etc... I find what I felt instinctively. Yes, you can bring back that feeling if both are willing to put in the effort. The WORK. THEY have to be interested in doing that work.
Mine has not. Yours? I don't know. They have to feel (not logic) us in a light that would interest them in trying.
ILYBINILWY and EA and MLC and Empty Nest and Internal Happiness issues (I'm not happy because of you) and menopause (for my w) and Fill in your H's issues
Which parts are of ME and I control? Those I will work on.
