[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 689446, member: 1550"] Cops, time is a great healer. Ok, you left for your self preservation, but you came back. I know your story, my friend. You needed to get away, but you cared and tried and came back at the most important time and you are one of my many brave heroes. Your situation is not like those of us who literally lived our lives to be there for our kids, and loved them mightily, only to be walked out on. Forever. Or constantly threatened with emotional blackmail, but I didn't even have that. Not a word. Not a comment when his wife got pregnant. No birth announcement. No contact. This was different than your situation. It is also way different from you and your son. I believe with all my heart that he loves you but grown men are usually less upfront about their affection than women. We want to hear it. They oddly at times feel uncomfortable saying it. Your situation was not anywhere close to mine. You are a kind, caring person who tried to get along with a difficult family, but needed a break once. My son got mad once and never looked back and does not miss us at all. You could never have been so unforgiving in the face of apology letters and love letters, although I'm not quite sure what happened to have him disregard me like old trash for over ten years. His wife didn't help, but it's on him, not her. I hope you have a nice day and kudos for the job!!!!! [/QUOTE]
