Hi Wed,

I starting reading your threads when I first came on the BB in January, and I am so happy and grateful to see you back. It has been you and a few others like you that have been standing for your marriages, that had me convinced that it was possible to get through this MLC thing. Still, even now, I think MLC is the weirdest thing and I have such a hard time believing it is possible for these scripts to be repeated and these patterns to continue in the lives of all of these different people. I have loved your posts, and have learned a lot from you. I would appreciate it if you could keep an eye on my sitch as I know I will need the support! I estimate that I am at least a year behind you and at least 6 months behind yellowrose, but of course there are still unique things going on in terms of timing and style with each MLCer! I love my H and am here for the long haul, so would appreciate the company

I am so happy for you that your H is back. I think it is true that your H still has guilt and shame, and maybe even some denial. So it will be hard for him to embrace you fully yet. I read on someone's thread once that the WAH found his LBW's diary after he returned, and reading that, crying with emotion, he realized what had really happened and what he had done. Your H may not be there yet, not ready to face it all. Lucky he realized that he belongs at home with you, that is really important right there. Just keep being patient and loving (as I know you have been!) and things will keep improving. I have a write-on board in my house, that says "Every day in every way, things are getting better and better". I wrote it big and pretty with lots of flowers Just having that as a reminder has helped me each day. And it is truly amazing how much better it has gotten this year. And you! Your story is an inspiration! And it is great that you still have your humor about it all
