I am sorry that finding that email has sent you to a place of sadness and frustration. I do, however, agree with LL regarding using this email for YOU. For you to see that you tried all this before and it didn't work with H.
I ,as you know, struggle with wanting to KNOW all the time. I need to constantly focus AWAY from needing to know it all and focus on today. I dont' have the R you have today but I focus on dd, my job, my friends, my life TODAY.
I also think that every phase we go through prepares us for the next phase. Example: I'm starting to come out of a down 2-week-period where I slept more than usual, cried more than usual, etc.....and....I think it helped get me to today. Today I feel that I really have no control over H and he does, so why worry about it?
I trust and believe that you will work this out in your mind and perhaps get to the other side where this stuff wont' hit a nerve anymore.
