Facing the truth... 

I am reading a new book called "Facing Love addiction" by Pia Mellody.  By chapter 3 I already have us pegged.  I can identify with  the behaviors of the love addict and see my husband as the love avoidant.  I know that until we both become healthy individuals that we cannot have a healthy union.  I am still trying to figure out if I desire to remain in this marriage.  With so much water under the bridge, sometimes it seems easier to start over...but that's part of the cycle.

I sent him an exerpt from the book.  I also reminded him that we NEED to talk.  I mentioned several weeks ago that I was thinking of getting a separation and we hadn't spoken a word about it since.  His initial response was "Fine, we'll get separated."  Then later he apologized and said that he recognized that his response was his m.o. of conflict avoidance.  He agreed that we do need to talk.
Do I think he'll read the book?  I don't know.  But if I listen to the book...that's not my business if he does.

stay tuned...

i think it's great that you're doing reserach on this...i believe marriages are worth the effort (unless there is abuse involved).

do you think he will read this book?
