Hey Heather Yeah, you might be right. You do seem to get a tense before your H comes back.

Maybe things will be ok once he gets home, maybe the anticipation of him coming back into our daily lives is worse than the actual return. Are you feeling dread? Just remember - you can live the life you live when he's there just as well as you can when he isnt. Seriously - it's a choice. When he's there you might be choosing to accomodate him in ways that you dont have to when he's not, and you are faced with how he acts. But, you are the same person whether he's there or not, so whatever he does, or doesnt do, just remember - you are Heather, YOU didnt change just because he walked through that door. And if you feel any judgement from him, remind yourself that you are a good person without H's approval, and you're fabulous whether or he wants to treat you that way or not.

I think it's a good thing that you put your rings back on. No sense giving him a reason to be p*ssed. You should be proud that you're not letting him drag you into silly games
