    Relationship Breathing Through Pulling Back

    Hi WU! First, congratulations on your wedding! Secondly, I don't have the words to tell you just how much your words really touched me and helped me. It gives me a lot of hope and confidence that you two were able to find ways together to work through your bumps and triggers. My Vet has just...

    Relationship He's Finally Communicating

    Thank you for that post! It was exactly what I needed to read today! I know where my Vet's heart and intent are, even if he cannot be there right now for so many reasons. I'm so proud of him for taking the time to work on himself so that he can be a more active part of a relationship and feel...

    Relationship Breathing Through Pulling Back

    The more I process this and am able to step back, the more my heart goes out to him. I can't imagine how he's feeling right now. And as much as it hurts me, I know he is hurting worse. I wish I could help, but I know this is a process and it's not easy. I can't love him back to himself, only he...

    Relationship Breathing Through Pulling Back

    That's what I guessing happened. While he is on so little that I wouldn't really ever see anything, I think my presence became too much. And 2017 has been a whopper so far, hasn't it @TheMinsterman? But I'm determined to remain positive - it will all be ok in the end. We just can't see that...

    Relationship Breathing Through Pulling Back

    There are reasons why I like to avoid social media typically, and today I remembered one of them. Friending and unfriending. I am reminding myself right now that I am a trigger that is causing my Vet distress, and that is likely the cause. I have posted a couple things over the last couple days...

    Relationship What "you Deserve Better" "i'm Only Going To Break Your Heart" Really Mean?

    @Newtoptsd level headed in the moment maybe, but I definitely have my teary-eyed and snot nosed moments. Today has had a small one despite having a good, but short, time together yesterday. I'm just trying to remember that my intent is out there in the universe and he knows that I'm here for him...

    Thank you @JadesJewel. As strong as I am right now, I'm sad and miss his presence terribly. I've never wanted a magic ball to see the future so badly. Being patient and having faith in him and myself is all I have here, so your words help me immensely.

    Relationship What "you Deserve Better" "i'm Only Going To Break Your Heart" Really Mean?

    I have heard my Vet say similar things that @Newtoptsd mentioned, and likewise, his actions and other words suggest otherwise. For example, he gave my grandmother and mother pictures of the two of us for Christmas, and then the next week (for a day) retreated from our relationship. We tried...

    Hi all, I've been doing a lot of reading on these pages over the last month, trying to get a better grasp on what my boyfriend has been going through for the last 10 years since returning from his deployment and to better understand what I can except and do to help. We met in June and got...
