Hi, me again, after two months of separation, then three months back togeher, and I have to admit big changes have been made.For one thing, he's now in Jordan, and will be for a couple of weeks. I'm still in USofA, and in the new apartment he's set up for me.
He believes he hasn't changed, but I see it clearly. No more abusive talk, no more hitting, no more using words like divorce. He really is more respectful towards me.
He knows he was wrong, and it feels good to know that I'm valuable to him.
Going to prison scared him I think. He admitted that even the men in jail acted like his crime ws the worst of all. lol.
I still think daily about my Scorpio ex-neighbor, but it's been three months and we haven't contacted each other at all. But it's best this way, as there is no reason to continue a relationship of any kind. I had found a heart traced on my car windshield one morning in the early dew, hearts being his trademark, and have decided to consider it the artwork of a passerby. He's not mine, and I've succumbed to that conclusion.
My husband is going to return some of my stuff in this Jordan trip, whatever he can carry in the plane. He has dreams of us retiring in Jordan, but agrees that now isn't the best time.
although he isn't a good "little kid" dad, I believe he'd be a great "teenager" dad. I think he would be there for his sons when they are old enough to work, date, be exposed to the scary world of high school, peer pressure and rebelling. Softhearted me needs him then.
He's being kinder to me, holding my hand more, making me laugh more, looking at me through the corner of his eye when I look sad (as I've grown accustomed to in these rocky five months.) and not insulting me with the recent million pound weight gain (Jupiter Taurus Moon 4th house--eating my feelings in Large doses)...
He's human, he deserves a second chance, I believe. He's proven it. He's gotten me flowers, candy, a new iPhone...But nothing beats being treated fairly, and i'm glad he's decided to fix the problem instead of running away.
I'm glad my mom and dad were there at my worst, it hurt that they sent me back to him. But they saw something i didn't is suppose, because he did make efforts and he is showing it.
I hope his family members in Jordan don't undo his progress with their cultural thinking, and old fashioned approaches.
Thanks for reading.
