DW and I had our second session in counseling and we are now starting to get to the nitty gritty stuff. There were things we both needed to improve on and I think we are doing very well. We both needed to adjust. Things feel really great for the first time in a long time, and she is visiting for my Bday this weekend! Andplusalso, we have set a tentative date of us moving back in together by the end of August.

We both kept bringing up how we used to be, and how we used to communicate, and what lead to my affair, and the most insightful thing our counselor said was "You both need to remember that you aren't that couple, your a growing, strengthening, and improving. You are no longer the couple you were, you are better". We both cried. The rest of our weekend was spent being lovey and snuggly in our sheraton hotel room i snagged for $32/night.


We have also agreed to continue counseling, and moving it up to biweekly after we move back in together, because things will be elevated at this time. We also know things wont be perfect when we move back in, but they will be better


The new job is wonderful, and I'm getting a earlier shift so no more vampira for me.

I work a lot between both jobs, but I'd keeps me focused.

this inspires me to move forward on the counseling .. I want to but i can talk nonstop M is hesitant and i need her to get on board. Things are back to being fine and quasi wonderful - we have big blow outs once in a while I guess. We talk it though and move past it but it will happen again. I guess I am kidding myself by thinking it should not happen. But your post really inspired me to seek a counselor. I am gonna make some calls.
