Laddybug,
Not sure if you're still around.
I just wanted to say that I said a prayer for you and your H this morning.
I wish you the best of luck.

walking - Thank you VERY much. I've been SO busy lately I haven't had much time to get online.
I ended up having the conversation with my husband. I would say it went good, not great. I would have loved for him to say "I forgive you, lets get back together now". Of course I knew this wasn't realistic. To make a very long story short, he said he was glad I changed my mind and was glad I told him. It made him feel great. But he is not ready to move back in together yet. At least he didn't say, no. I'll keep showing him how I feel and just see what happens. I feel better now though, we've gotten closer the last few weeks.
Thanks for the support. Hope I can get back online soon.

WAY TO GO LADDYBUG!!!!!
We knew you could do it!
The hardest part is now over. Keep showing him how you feel, he WILL reciprecate in kind. Maybe not right away, but when he feels "safe" that you "really" feel the way you do, he will receiprecate in kind and very likely more.
Set a steady pace, like you were running a marathon, for this is truly what it is. And the prize, at the end of the race, is a truly recoverd, revitalized, and intimate marriage.
Every footfall brings you a little closer to the finish line.
Good luck and God Bless!
