I thought it was time for a quick update. Thigs have changed dramatically since my last post. I went to the attorney, filled out the papers and handed over the cash. He sent W a letter, and she came running back. Since that time, she has come around full circle. We are rebuilding our M, and the future looks bright. We have been back together since just before Christmas. W is remorseful, and is completely committed to saving the M. OM sent me a letter, expressing his regret, and his acceptance of the end of the A. We are going to a local MC, and are working out the issues that led to the big mess. Our passions have been rekindled.
I am so thankful to all of the helpful people here. I couldn't have persevered if it weren't for the sensible souls here that offered assistance.
Hi CSW. I am really happy to hear YOUR good news. Thank you for updating us. Hope you drop in once in a while and post. Unbeknownst to you, you introduced me to a lot of new music.
Holy sh!t csw that is great! What do you think turned this boat around? Are you continuing the "man o steel" behavior that we recommend on here all the time? How are you rebuilding the trust? Are the awkward moments becoming fewer and further between?
CSW! Great news! I was addicted to your posts (back in the day). Isn't it amazing how the threat of divorce can kick each other in the a@@ to make some real changes. H and I are really making some great progress as well. I'd love it if you would post more often and keep us updated.
I'm so happy for you. But more so for your wife, for she is one LUCKY lady.
Get this: I made a list, per your suggestions, of all the things I need to make good beer and H and I have gone to the beer supply store two times (and arranged for a babysitter twice, which is the logistical equivalent of arranging a mideast peace talk) and it was CLOSED!! We're back on the We Gotta Get There bandwagon, though, cause I bought some Pete's Wicked Ale over the weekend and I found it to be quite bland and not wicked at all.
Glad you checked in; I can't think of anyone I'd like to hear more good news from!
RE: csw We have been back together since just before Christmas. Good to hear from you. Ihe last I heard it was quitsville. Congratulations to both of you guys on the progress.
It is always good to hear from some of the oldtimers and hear of their efforts and outcomes.
Please make at least monthly updates if you can. Seeing how relationships play out and things that were tried, that work, or don't work (I know each case/person is different) helps the readers here on DB.
Do you think your W would post anything here to helped her and you to unite. I think most DBers would like a little insight as to what worked or motivated someone to change. I also know we like to hear about things that were not usefull or just wheel spinning.
Sounds to me, Lou, like it was the tried-and-true method of "threaten divorce."
Happy for YOU, csw -- as you deserve all of the happiness in the world. But I''m STILL looking for ways, short of LEAVING or THREATENING TO LEAVE, that this chit works.
