Quote: My sitch is similar to yours...we have made major changes and our sex life is better now than it has been in 10 yrs but I don't have the peace of mind to relax. And good reason, too.
Apparently a previously SSM requires constant vigilance on the part of the HD spouse in order to avoid a return to the status quo. The reason I entitle this thread "Back to Square 2" is I feel like at least (Thank God!) I'll never go back to square 1 in my marriage because I've grown through the process of addressing the problem in a straightforward way. I have every intention of telling my H that I didn't appreciate his "piece of meat" comment and that I believe that he was just insulting me to avoid confronting his own inadequacies. Again. I am not going to pretend to be LD just to help him pretend like he's not.
