I am glad that he is staying outside of his comfort zone. That is an uncomfortable place for both of you in the relationship, but it is a very good place to be.
Tonight isn't shaping up to be a very good evening. H had an appt with his L today and he came home, treating me very much like old days. He said it was not a good feeling to be in the L's office today. I asked him if it was anything in particular and he said no. He's spending time with the kids right now and both kids left the bedroom for a minute, so I went down and asked if he was alright. He said being in the L's office brought it all back and that maybe he just needs some time, he doesn't know. I said "I'm trying to give you space, I just wanted to make sure you're ok, I feel bad that you're upset". So, I guess I'll just give him his space for the rest of the night and be available later if he wants to talk, but I don't think I'll push for a conversation tonight.
It was a heartbreak to have this happen. I'm hoping that it's short lived. Please keep us in your thoughts, things were going so well....
