It has been a while since I have visited MB but without it I am sure my marriage would be over and I am not sure I would be where I am today - so thank you to everyone who has written it is through each others pain we have found strenght and hope.
D day was 2 years and 2 months ago and while we are in a better place than we were that day I am finding it hard to connect at a deep level with my H. We began marriage counseling after my failed attempts to move our relationship forward. So far I like the MC but I am at a loss of how to reconnect to my H. I read about how so many people are so happy and have a greater and deeper relationship than they ever have and I keep dreaming that we will one day. We had our 9th wedding anniversary last month and while I dream of the day we will celebrate I feel as if we are still surviving each year.
Does anyone have any suggestions. My H had the A and so far is willing to work on our relationship, for me it is slow and I get discourage everytime I see couples who look and act so in love with their best friend! My H seems to be content with the relationship never needing or wanting anything more - me always searching for the deeper and mroe fulfilling. Our life seems to be communicating the basic necessities (i.e. schedules, pick up and drop off for day care, work etc.) How do you get beyond that to the feelings and emotional intimacy if you will.
Lost but haning on.

Your H needs to help you get closure. Call Steve, he can help both of you with the recovery plan.
