Men are fixers, but we aren't good at it when we don't understand what makes it work.<BR>For him sooner sounds better, when best is what works for both and make real and lasting differences. I have been indirectly told I'm only making 'surface changes' and these are easily done and tough to live up to. Lasting change means self examination and commitment. It is possible, even for us men. <BR>I hope he hasn't started to demand 'proof of your love' also known as 'you first'. It only works between men to show good faith.<BR>But go into therapy thinking positives, and look at the techniques here on this web site. Tons of great stuff. God Bless.

well we had our first session and for me my biggest problem is trusting in him, that his A is truly over. I asked him for proof like his cell phone records and he got upset and said i need counseling to get over it and that i just need to trust him. He seems to think all he has to do is say its over and thats it, i should believe in him again just like that. I was so hurt once again because I started thinking he must have something to hide and that is why he won't let me see those records. Please continue praying for me, that i'll have the courage to do the right thing.
