Am I expecting too much too soon?

DH home after an affair. We're making a go of things and after a slow start, things are improving. He's asking how I am, listening to me, showing me more affection, but I don't know, it feels like something's missing, like its a bit perfunctory but not quite. I've suggested going out for meals - maybe I'm too sensitive these days, and granted, he hasn't been well this week, so that's fair enough, but am I asking too much? Perhaps. I mean I suppose Rome wasn't built in a day.

I'm going away for a week with DDs tomorrow and I can't wait. Bliss.

There's a lot of pressure on you atm, the holiday couldn't be better timed. You need this space. It'll also show him what being left looks like. Leave him o think, you need the space, don't call him etc, show him how life Without you looks.

Tigger he doesn't need her to go away to do that, and ramming it home over and over won't help her gain the space she needs t work things out in her head.

Lippy, whatever happens, you will be fine. Ok? You can only make good decisions on a calm mind.

Sorry things have been so tough for you, I second Hissy, whichever path unfolds you will be just fine. Enjoy your holiday and the headspace Flowers
