Trying: Good for you!!! Sounds like you're a winner too. You took H back on YOUR terms and that's so important. If you made temporary changes - the inclination to "slip back" into old modes is always there. The reconciliation might fail that way. BUT - you've done what you needed or wanted to do for YOU, not for H. He is there of his own free will and you are living the life you want. BRAVO!!!
