Hi Phoenix,

You are right. Him getting a job and moving to my town are big steps in themselves.

I've sent him tons of links with job listings and sent out feelers on the good 'ol boy network.

He thanked me for the oodles of information I sent him and he was very excited about one of them! And was intrigued about the others.

I also sent him housing information and he was very excited about how cheap living is here, compared to his city.

But the most exciting sign of all:

He was on AIM and saw my older brother was online. He sent my brother an IM asking if I'd been online recently. My brother responded back and then being the buttinsky that he is, he asked, "So are you getting divorced or staying married."

My husband responded, "Staying married. I'm moving to her town."



He doesn't like telling people anything until it's certain. Each time he told me that he wanted to separate, he insisted I wait and not tell anyone until we actually separated.

So, this is good!

Now, I am hoping he'll tell his family too...

I certainly plan on staying on this board, continuing to post and read.

I find that I have a difficult time figuring out what signs are signs. What techniques work. Etc.

I'm getting better at learning how to strategize. However, I know I have a long road of hard work ahead of me.

But I am very excited that we might begin living together and working on our relationship purposely.

I need to calm down and get a really good nights sleep. This roller coaster has turned into a loop de loop!

Hugs to you and Steph and all.
