The ex called me when she got home from the 6 hour drive to let me know she made it. She indicated she had a good time and thanked me for letting her stay at my house. She said she didn't want to leave and wished she could stay. I told her I understood how difficult leaving our son must be and I would do whatever I could to ease the burden of her travels. Much to my surprise, she stated it wasn't just our son that made leaving difficult. It was because of me too.
She said she made a mistake divorcing me and wants to reconcile but has alot of confusing issues that she must resolve in order to be absolutely sure. I told her that I would be supportive during this time of reflection even if the outcome was not positive. She began to cry and said she has never stopped loving and caring for me but felt the divorce was the answer to her unhappiness. Another regrettable action of many in her life.
I felt badly for her as she was beating herself up pretty good for what she believes is another bad decision. She definately needs to work through some things but I am starting to see the woman I married again. The fog is slowly lifting.
