Gotten all emotional about my husband's leaving to go work on things he needed to do. I got so involved in wanting his company in the morning I got more and more upset about it. It hurts . I needed to let go. I needed to take care of myself. I needed to encourage and cooperate. I have created such hurt and division instead of unity and cooperation . It has also contributed to my husband acting out his own pain. Yesterday was terrible. I couldn't seem to stop remembering what happened. Every thought was a pain to me. These regretful and sorrowful thoughts make me physically ill. It makes things seem less hopeful and more like we are really stuck now.

You can always apologize if your behavior was inappropriate ... that helps me feel better. It doesn't take all of the pain away, but it is a start. It can also be an opening to a healthy discussion about the issues that are causing the friction. Once the waters have calmed down some, you can ask for what you want/need i.e. some of his time and attention because you enjoy his company.

That yes! I was also thinking we might settle on a definite time that we would both keep .
