I am going away, just for basically one day. A really quick trip, but I'm going to spend the weekend catching up on stuff. Yesterday was way to much pressure,etc. I am not trying to push her back to stage 1 and I think (as I often do) that this time I have control of what I want to do and goals firmly in mind.
Unfortunately, there is this ugly little demon in my head that is playing a different tune every once in awhile. It's called pros and cons of life with my wife. This little demon starts throwing out things that made life difficult with her, the things I disliked about her, etc and says..."is it really worth it? You might handle things differently when you are back together but will you wife? Can you trust her not to just run again even if you had her back?" I'm going to spend this weekend sending that little demon back to hell so I can think.
I'm not going to say I won't slip up, but I will say that I'm going to see this thing through stage 2 onto 3. I just hope I get to do that when I'm still married.
As always, thanks for comments.
