2much-
I am new to the boards, but I read your most recent post, and I wanted to thank you and congratulate you. I woke up this morning feeling somewhat pessimistic, but I read your post and realized that there is hope, even after an EA. I cried for you, b/c your happiness was evident in your post. In regards to what you are still looking for, remember what you wrote "patience paid off." Perhaps your H needs more time. I would suggest that you talk to him about it, although DB says not to push it sometimes. It seems like if you can make it back from where you were, then everything will fall into place in time. Like the book says, it takes a long time to get your marriage to where it is (or was), it will take a long time to get it to where you want it to be. Despite not knowing you, I am genuinely happy that your hard work has resulted in a positive outcome. It seems as if you have really turned a corner and put the bad stuff behind you. I wish you much success and happiness as you continue on this road.
