I posted not quite a month ago about my husband and I having a really great date. We've been separated since November and living separately since January. Like I said in that post it's been absolutely awful, all we'd been doing is fighting for months.

It's been almost a month, we went out to a nice dinner last night and he asked about moving back in. We had a long conversation about what that looked like for both of us and a timeline. We're going to start slow with him sleeping over a few nights a week and bringing some of his stuff back home and then being fully moved in within the next month.

We're going to discuss this with our therapist next week, and I am so elated to have finally gotten here. It's been incredibly difficult on me, the kids and him to be going through this. And I genuinely didn't think we'd get here.

I posted a few months ago and have been creeping the sub frequently. My husband asked me for a separation back in October and then moved out in January. It really hasn't been going well up to this point, but we're both doing therapy and couples and he just got his medication figured out.

Yesterday we had a therapy session together and it went really well. We've both made an effort to not have any hard discussions between sessions and to just relax a little, and it's been hard. But we were able to get into our marriage itself during therapy rather than damage control from some fight we had between sessions.

After the session we both returned to work but had already planned to have a date afterwards. Kids went to a sleepover, I started dinner and he came over. We had so much fun. We were making jokes, laughing, being really affectionate and just having the best time. We kissed, snuggled, had sex and just relaxed together.

I don't know if we'll be able to turn everything around yet but having this evening to look back on feels really special. I'm hoping we keep on this path and turn things around but we'll see. Just wanted to throw this out there that it's been awful between us for months but I think we might be finding the light a little.
