Please see my other thread that I started under "in recovery". I don't have it in my to retype my update. My H and I just had a fairly lengthy conversation on the phone. It's done. It's just plain old done. And it hurts. I know I don't corner the market on pain around here, but it really hurts.

I just want you to know that I pray that God softens your H's heart and will once more bring the man you love back in your arms.

BUMP^^^

I really REALLY would appreciate some feedback on my thread over "in recovery". I am kind of going crazy today, wondering what to do next.

Jen

I am sorry things have been tough for you over the last couple of days.

I know you are going crazy, but I think you need to take a step back, take some time and reflect. With the pressure of all the phone calls, the abuse, his father's death and all manner of other things, is it any wonder that you both sometimes get to a point of feeling despair.

I mentioned to you on another thread that I sense you have this strong strong desire to get to MC. Jen, whether you do or not, it may not gain the end result of Jen and Mr Brown back happily together again. I sense that you feel if you did this you really would have tried everything.

My H has constantly refused MC after our first initial disaster. Would it make a difference to us now? I don't think so, because it is not in his heart to want to try again. I'm not saying that's the case for you, but him not agreeing to MC did not mean I didn't try everything I could.

I don't know what else to say really, but maybe you need some time for yourself to get your thoughts in order. Jen, you can't force him.

Take care.
Lisa
