[QUOTE="Star*, post: 444057, member: 4964"] YOU........don't change a thing about YOURSELF>..that's how you behave. He's the one that had to come to conlusions, a journey, and agreement wtih Jesus, and find himself. Whatever the "BIG DEAL" was? YOU are human, you make mistakes, and you can say "You know what? I'm sorry for what I said, DID, etc, and I mean it, I've CHANGED, I DIDN"T KNOW, I"ll learn about it..and I hope you forgive me." and can we move on from here? I have always been willing - I have never stopped loving YOU. THEN YOU get to say YOUR peace - YOU Hurt me, I've MISSED you, I don't want to loose you again....I have missed my Grandson, my DAUGHTER IN LAW.....I don't want to loose touch again. How do we (WE) work this out - What is good for US - ????? A call once a month ? A visit once a month? HOlidays? Whatever works for the THREE OF YOU........(since he is married) It's not that hard. But you BOTH have to be willing to meet in the middle, forgive EACH OTHER......granting it is something that is workable.....work on it =====move on------and acknowledge each others pain - then MOVE ON. It's not a job interview.....he's not better than you......you're not better than him......part of him needs to be acknowledged for his pain.....accept that......and make sure the mediator acknowledges your pain. Then move on. It can take some time but I'm happy for you both. THis is wonderful news. HUGS [/QUOTE]
