H called to talk to D. She is going to pick up a friend so she called to see if she could talk with him. I talked to him about our house we have a nibble on it. Anyway nice conversation but when I told him I loved him he faded out and said okay bye. He did tell me he would talk to me later about the house. O' well he was on guard tonight I could tell by the way he responded. But I am doing okay. We are talking and he still wants to met when I take son to the doctors.<P>------------------<BR>di<P><p>[This message has been edited by SDS (edited February 03, 2000).]

Remember, it took God 7 days to make the world. Nothing happens overnight and it wasn't necessarily a bad reaction, just a reaction. Bad would have been if he had yelled at you for saying it or hung up on you without ANY kind of comment. Try to keep it in perspective and remember that baby steps are fine!

I know what you mean. When I talk to H, I always end the conversation with I love you. He always says something like..."umhmm, bye" or "okay,bye". But like chick's said, thank God for the babysteps! I just try to tell myself, just because he is not expressing his love the way I need him to right now, doesn't mean that he don't love me. this journey is far beyond over and all we can do right now is count our blessings! <P>------------------<BR>"If you can learn from the mistakes of others, you won't have to make them youself."<P>lady_divine77@yahoo.com

Chick's Thanks. I know but those babysteps take so long to get anywhere. But at least we are talking.<P>Studentwife, Thanks for the prayers I praying for you too. How are you doing? When do you see the lawyer?<P>Jamie-lee, I know, you want to make progress and when things stand still, it gets to you. The fact is he has called once a week for the last three weeks. I guess that is progress. All calls have been about the house. Maybe that is why it hasn't sold yet. Always before when I write him about the house I got nothing, now he calls. a baby step. <BR><P>------------------<BR>di<P>

![[Linked Image from marriagebuilders.com]](http://www.marriagebuilders.com/forum/images/icons/grin.gif) Satisfied. I am really doing already. Like I said I have talked to him three times in three weeks and he is the one doing the calling. I don't even expect a call next week. Of course if we get the house sold I don't know what we will talk about. Maybe when he doesn't have that to talk to me about he will start missing me. I can hope can't I ???!!! Thanks Jim.<P>------------------<BR>di<P>
