ThumbingMyWay Posted June 21, 2005 Share Posted June 21, 2005 My situation has really been falling into place lately....so i figured I;d move my posts over to the marriage board First off....wife and kids and I spent fathers day weekend camping. Was a beautiful weekend....and we all had a great time. My wife and I both commented on how nice it was to all be together and have fun. we both were into eachother and the kids....and we both are feeling things we havent felt in a while....we are feeling close...and its nice. She turned in her final paper for school....and if all goes well she sould come away with a B in the first class....so she is excited for that. When we made love last night and it was increadible. We both were into eachother.. very close and very sensual.....something we havent had in a while....almost like the old days PLUS we got great news from her work. The OM is being transfered to another office in July (woohoo), so she called me to tell me she was excitied for that...so that WE can finally move on with him out of the picture. Then 1 hour later she called me again....the office manager told her that she was accepted to her promotion and she will be placed into an HR supervisor position in July. I guess the HR manager said, that my wife is the perfect fit for this position. Plus her boss said that the HR guy is super to work for and is flexible. SO....it seems likes things are falling into place....school....work....and our feelings. She is more positive than ever and I am on my way too....... future looks bright.....and I feel as if I am getting over this hump that I have been in the last year.....

whichwayisup Posted June 21, 2005 Share Posted June 21, 2005 Thumbs, I'm really happy for you both! You've worked really hard to get past everything and all the emotions, and then your wife took your lead, did the same thing. All that positive enery you gave and showed here, has paid off! Now it's time to get a sitter for the kids a weekend and take your wife away on a real nice romantic getaway!! Link to post Share on other sites

Ladyjane14 Posted June 21, 2005 Share Posted June 21, 2005 That's just WONDERFUL. I can't think of anybody who's worked harder for his marriage. Your wife is a lucky woman to have you. You know, it just gets better. At first, recovery feels like something that might be snatched away at any moment.....but after awhile, you begin to trust in yourself again, that you've learned enough about relationships. You gain confidence that the old traps don't pose a serious danger anymore. You see them for what they are, so they can no longer hurt you. I think these moments of insecurity are similar to "triggers", but they get fewer and further between as time goes by. And I think that they teach you to be aware of the 'maintenance' that needs to be applied to a healthy relationship. Anyway, it's good to hear that everything is going so well for you.

tiki Posted June 21, 2005 Share Posted June 21, 2005 Wow! That's great! I'm so glad to hear that he's transferring!! Speaking of, I've got another job in line myself. I'm giving the greatest gift possible to my H. Getting away from my ex-MM (even though it was before him). My H says he isn't too bothered by it, but I'd love more than anything to be able to give that to him, he deserves it! It's not the only reason I'm leaving, though. Good luck to you two lovebirds. Enjoy it, cherish it and NEVER let the romance die. Pick up the book 1001 romantic things to do for your lover. Also, check out loving you dot com. Possibilities are endless. Pray, pray together even. Know that you have forgiven as you have been forgiven. Good luck lover~boy! Link to post Share on other sites
MWC_LifeBeginsAt40 Posted June 21, 2005 Share Posted June 21, 2005 I'm very happy for you and your wife. One thing that always made me feel very happy when I was married was the camping trips. We really seemed to connect on those weekends. Link to post Share on other sites

You are soooo right about the maintenance.......I am so glad that we are "aware" of what it takes now.....kinda feel privledged that I know what to do.....I see so many couples just living and not working on or expressing there feelings and wants. They just go on and on.....with that feeling of somethings missing but not sure how to find it......well i know how to find it and keep it. And she is lucky....she even says so. She has given me alot of props lately about what a great man I am. A faithful, helping husband and a willing father. Alot, if not all of her friends have husbands that dont do half the stuff I do for her and the kids. I am the proverbial nice guy, that every woman wants to be there husband....... its the bad-boy stuff i got to work on I mean....like I have said before....all these threads about the nice guy that all woman want for a husband, the nice guy that a woman is emotionally interested in..........but its the bad-boys they are physically attracted too.....now where did i leave my confidence and sixpack abs?
