Update on me


MyBrownEyedBoy wrote: Ok, here goes. First of all, thank you to all of you who both read and replied to my previous thread. Those hugs were great, I only wish they could be real ones, not just virtual ones. hug.gif
Aaron and I have been separated for a week now. I think it may have been the best decision that we ever made for our relationship. Aaron is realizing how much he misses us and how much we mean to him. I'm realizing that although I CAN do things on my own, I don't really want to. I miss having someone to talk to in the evenings (who's favorite sentence isn't "No, I do it myself.") I miss him beside me in the bed, I miss just knowing he is in the house, even if we aren't in the same room. I have hated every minute of this week. Last weekend was the worst. I have never experienced a longer two days. I was thrilled to see Monday morning arrive.
Although we had cable internet access, the computer was loading pages slower than dialup. Apparently our computer was infested with viruses and spyware, so I had to take it to a repair place and they had to basically wipe it completely clean and reinstall things. So, now I can come back on here. I've missed it and you all.
Aaron and I have decided to re-evaluate our relationship next week. We've decided that a full month may not be necessary. So, we'll do half a month and see how we are. He's been calling every night he doesn't have Logan (Tuesday and Thursday he has Logan in the evenings and Saturday from about 10-2:30). He sends me e-mails at work just to see how I'm doing and how I feel. And he swears that we will never again take a vacation separately. Fine by me, I hated that. I really want him home. And I think he's finally realizing how his life is without me. I've finally gotten some answers. Ones that were a LONG time coming.
Anyway, this got longer than I expected it to, so I'll just end it here. I'll answer questions if you've got them. But I wanted to be sure to tell you all what was up and how I was. Thanks again for your caring attitudes. hug.gif

amymom replied: hey Kelly,
You sound good and I am glad for that. You and Logan look wonderful in your signature picture.

I hope all things work out for you guys as a family. If I could do something I would. I will pray for you to have what you need AND what you want. hug.gif hug.gif

Take care, Anne Marie

CantWait replied: Well I'm glad that Aaron is finally starting to smarten up and see what he's missing. Sometimes a little time apart is all one needs.
Sorry you're having a hard time with it, but hopefully you guys will be a family again soon. hug.gif hug.gif

lovemy2 replied: I think no matter how many times someone tells you how amazing and strong you are and how sometimes things like this are good for your relationship, etc. etc. it doesn't take away the fact that it all hurts very badly - nevertheless you are an amazing person and I am sorry it took Aaron having to be away to realize that - he should have known it - keep your chin up and continue to pat yourself on your back - you deserve it - you know how I feel about you and all that you go through so I guess there isn't much more for me to type here... hug.gif hug.gif

MyBrownEyedBoy replied: Thanks, guys. Your support has meant the world to me. I've purposely not told my parents and family about this. If things do work out for the best, as I think they will, I don't want my family to have more "ammo" against Aaron. KWIM?

luvmykids replied:
I learned that the hard way and a year later am still trying to patch things up...you have extra admiration from me there because I just couldn't do it without spilling the beans hug.gif

I hope the best for you, I admire you for being so willing to fight for your family even when the going gets tough. I hope this is a great new starting point for you guys hug.gif

We've been seeing a counselor. And she thinks this was the shakeup Aaron needed. But I agree, we do need to continue.
