Dear M:

You wrote that you leaving him three months ago caused him to “finally open his eyes”. For less than three months then, his eyes have been open and he sees his responsibility to the troubles in the marriage.

My suggestion: continue a communication with him, where the two of you are motivated and working for a common goal. Opening one’s eyes is a good thing. But it is easy for most to close them again.

See to it that your eyes are open.
