Default Re: What Next

Really interesting that you said that because last night, I did not get much sleep. I read thru several post and their was one that stood out for me with a woman that deeply regretted getting divorced. I don't want that regret. Right now I am not happy and our relationship is sorely lacking communication. Much of the reason is me. I have kind of shut down. This morning he reached out to me and told me he doesn't want our relationship to end. He wants so bad for it work, I feel like I have to really try. Something I have not really done. Resentment from the past has caused me to hold on to a grudge that will eventually destroy our marriage. We did have a breakthrough in the sense that he finally is starting to understand who I am. One of the main reasons we are in this situation is because I did not believe he sees who I am - all of me. Not just the wife and mother because I am so much more than that. I do have others who I can share my passion with but it is important that I can share it with him. Me turning to others in my family for support is one of the reasons we drifted apart. This Friday, he is planning a date for us. Something he has never done. He has always depended on me to do everything so I will keep you posted.
