Hi Ninja, I agreed to move into the basement at the end of October. I guess the rationale was that maybe more space would bring us closer? It’s hard though with very hectic work schedules and home life to give each other space. I did think the past couple of weeks were much better though and was starting too feel more relaxed than I have in a long time but then something so silly and minor can make all the doubts resurface. I think I’ve just got to keep going, learn from my mistakes, and maybe one day we will be able to share a bed together soon.

Anita, my wife says she understands my depression and has accepted it. She hugs me when I am feeling sad about our current state of affairs. She feels a great sense of pain that she is putting me through this process and right now can’t really do a lot to comfort me because our situation is the cause. She has said she genuinely cares for me and when I told her about a possible work promotion last week that I may get she was thrilled for me. I think their has been a lot of good that has occurred over the past couple of weeks and if I would just let things happen, they may just happen. But in my world right now 2 weeks seems like an eternity…..
