Last night, out of the blue, he came up to me , put his arms around me and said, " Shul, I am sorry for all the hell I have put you through."

Love never fails.

Shul - I'm so happy to hear your news. Sounds like he finally "gets it".

We aren't quite out of the woods yet.

But we are going there together, now, I think...

So glad to hear everyone's response. I guess that must've been how my H felt when I said the same thing to him.

It would mean so much to me to hear those words. I have said them myself. How long did it take?

Shul... I'm happy to hear this. I'll sleep better tonight because of it.

If my W ever said that to me I'd be sure I was hallucinating.

I hope his actions match his words.

As a WS, I have said the words - and meant them. I probably need to say them more often. It's sometimes hard to admit how horrible I have been. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />

I am a BS, also, and it has made me feel better to hear my WS say the same thing. I often hear, however, the "it wouldn't have happened if you had been meeting my needs" speech. Or, "it was about unmet needs". Yes, I know that. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif" alt="" /> Sometimes an apology - just an apology without excuses - means everything.

Glad you got to hear the apology. It must have been special. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
