Thank you open eyes and shezbut. And no worries open eyes, i reread each one... Only because I reread things all the time over and over to fully understand every word, so the tripple posting made it easier

I didn't give him the letter. I ripped it in half and threw it in the trash. I was going to but I decided not to. When he got home from work I could tell he was trying to be in a good mood and he was trying to act like the night before hadn't happened basically. So I went along with it and we both, awquardly at some times, tried to act as if this whole thing hadn't happened. He apologized numerous times throughout the day but that was all that was said about it. I would just tell him "Don't be sorry. You can't help how you feel and you're only telling me how you feel. It's nothing to be sorry for". We made it through Friday pretty well. Things were a little tense but when I saw him trying to put an effort into getting things back to the way they were, I decided not to give the letter. I'm happy about that decision.

Instead for some reason I gave him his birthday present. He was a little confused as well. I just wanted to give something positive to the day and get the good mood started. His birthday isn't for a month. I do things like that when I'm in an argument. That's a whole other topic there lol.

Yesterday was even better. No arguments at all or any uncomfortable or angry feelings. I could feel the jealousy come but the second I started to feel it I would force it away and the day went well. We were laughing and seeming to be back to normal. Then I got online and read these and they helped even more.

What you said open eyes made perfect sense so I brought it up with him last night when we were getting ready for bed. We talked about it for a minute and it seemed like I understood him better and he understood me better.

Hopefully things keep getting better. I just have to watch myself and make sure I don't let my feelings get the best of me. I gotta get going. Gotta get started with my day!!! Thanks again for the replies
