W went to clinic yesterday to verify preg and the test came back neg!!!!!!!!!! [Linked Image from marriagebuilders.com] I never thought this could happen. And to top it all off she also started to get her period for the first time in 4 months, she was 3 months late. I cannot tell you how happy this makes both of us feel. I sure you all get the idea though. [Linked Image from marriagebuilders.com]<P>W has also been very good at opening up and being vulnerable to me, only I seem to take it too far and w shuts down. I need to be more of a listener, which I'm really good at, but curiosity has been getting the better of me. We seem to be talking of the hows and not the specifics which I think is good. Please pray I can be the man God wants me to be.<P>God bless you all,<BR>knight

Congrats!!!! Take it slow and listen, women need someone to listen and not offer advice sometimes. It's good that she wants to vent wth you. Good luck.<P>Unsure<P><BR>

What a trip! I guess it was the stress of everything and bulemia that affected your wife's menstrual cycle, huh? In any case, that is awesome news and a big relief for both of you. I'm amazed at God's goodness and grace. Enjoy your recovery and yeah, I guess that is why we have 2 ears and 1 mouth, so we could listen a little more than we talk. I could benefit from that advice myself!

Thanks for all your replys and well wishes,<P>I can't tell you what a relief to now not have to deal w/ oc and w/ w promising not to run to om again I feel we are on recovery road. I tell you its been hard for me not to stick my big mouth in where its not wanted. I know I need to think of w needs when we are talking rather than my own but it really bites when my most important ENs are not being fulfilled. We really need to find a c for w personal issues, but that has not taken priority, when it really needs to. And I really don't want to go to a c only for the fact that right now the added stress of me being gone another 2+hours a week were w is left w/ kids is a huge LB for w. I want her to see my needs now especiaaly SF, our s relationship was better than any of our friends and now its nonexistant, and the problem is that I don't understand why we have to wait, is she waiting for some kind of magic to happen? I am elated, yet frustrated. Only time can tell.<P>God bless all of you,<BR>knight
