Danny,

If the door is still open take advantage of it...now is the time to practice your gentleman skills in text. Never miss an opportunity.

My wife and I have been married for 36 years and have known each other for 40 and I still have to chase that woman. She lets me catch up once in awhile.

Therapy wasn't too productive. First session is always tough recounting my ridiculous story and how much it has affected me. Such a nightmare. It depresses me just verbalizing it. I managed to do all right with the conversation. I was Overstimulated but I recovered OK.

She keeps texting me daily. I'm not sure what it means. There's no I love you but she's calling me babe and boo. It's really confusing. The toughest part is being in this empty house that we were supposed to share to help me get better.

Too bad I ruined my last chance at happiness in this world. She and I used to be the happiest and I let my emotions and preoccupations drive her away. I'm getting close to asking her whether it's over but I think I know the answer. Maybe it's best to give her space and not press her about it.

I really don't know if I can go on without the love of my life

Danny,

You have got to quit saying she was your last chance at happiness....nobody can predict that but as long as you are convinced of it you will make it be true.

Not trying to jump on you...just hope you will consider the power of your words.

Bud
