I thought that I was making progress this weekend but I was wrong. We argued Friday night and I was really sad at one point. He hugged me and held me for a long time. Then he asked me to stay with him on Friday. He put in a movie and we snuggled on the couch. I felt so much better. I got up Saturday morning and before I left for my counselor's appointment, we had sex! It was great.
I enjoyed my time with my friends and I had a fun weekend. On Saturday we went to a lounge in Sarasota. It was fun, the music was great and there was some great eye candy. Unfortunately, my friends brother decided to join us and that prevented anyone from approaching my best friend or I. It was fun anyway. I danced some and when he stepped outside I had a guy walk over which felt good even though I wasn't interested. I've been taking a Zumba class and it makes me enjoy dancing more.
Anyway, on Sunday, I went to lunch with some friends, then we all went to see Horton hears a Who. It was a cute movie. Brian called just before I went into the movies because he was getting home. I didn't invite him but said I would be home afterwards. He was waiting for me and we talked for a bit before going out to eat. I felt like I ate all day on Sunday! Then we went for a walk /run in the evening and talked a lot.
Yesterday, I went to my work out class and then we went to eat at a local steakhouse. On the way back, we started talking about a story we saw on TV about a Navy Leuitenant who had killed his wife's exhusband because he felt the man was a threat to his family. The guy was sentenced to life in Jail and his wife stopped visiting a year ago. I told him that it scares me that he disconnects from his feelings and can think logically without emotion all the time. I saw that as a similarity with the dateline story we saw. Anyway, our talk got a little heated but in the end, I felt like I understood him better. We both said things that hurt each other though and one of them was very low to me. At one point I said that I didn't have trouble communicating with people and he said well obviously you did because your ex husband did not feel like he could tell you he was cheating on you. He explained that he was trying to prove a point not hit below the belt but that really bugged me. As I said, we got better and in the end I feel good about our talk.
Tonight, has been pretty uneventful. I made dinner and then we went for a walk. I'm about to go to bed but I am thinking about my friend who went through a divorce. She's having trouble motivating herself to do anything. She finally spoke to her doctor today and they prescribed an anti deppressant. I'm worried about her losing her job and getting to an even worse place. I wish I knew how to help her.

We saw "Horton heard a Who" and loved it. Your friend will heal on her on time, but just being there checking in with her and inviting her out will help her. Divorce is a tough gig.... although separating is just as tough.... talking to others in my situation helped me - your friend is lucky to have you.

Relationships are tough in general . To think that communication could be so hard , yet we do it everyday with everyone else . But when it comes down to communicating with the one you love its like we "choke " ! hang in there !

I agree with easy to say and blue moon in my eye. I think it was very cruel to say something about your husband cheating on you. That was thoughtless and cruel.
I hope that things get better for your friend.
I've been separated from my husband since September and I am so thankful that we are talking again and trying to get things worked out between us since February.

His comment about your cheating ex was hitting below the belt and uncalled for...I would open the door to dialogue for that again before going further.
Your friend is lucky to have you. What's Zumba?? Must Google that one...
Thanks for posting and good luck. XXX
