I just came across this in one of my old posts:

I said:

He said he doesn't want to be responsible to anyone, not obligated to call and say where he is, not to have to explain what he's doing.

He said in his mind, that's what marriage means.

I explained that our marriage will be how WE decide it.

So, he's told me that he has an important need to be independent and not tell me where he is or what he's doing.

At this point in my journey, I can trust that he's not out doing harm to me or to our relationship. He just needs to feel that he's his own person.

Well, looks like this is still important to him.

Good news is this weekened he's going to go camping.

I'm trying to get all my chores done so that I can play with my mom and have a much needed day to myself to play!

I've been suggesting things for him to take with him, offered to help him pack.

And I've showed him how excited I am for him.

I think he appreciates my attitude a lot.

So...go me...I need to keep it up.

Hugs all!
