Wrote DH an E-mail
I just wrote DH a long e-mail to get out all my feelings. I sometimes think it easier because I can tell him what I want to say without being interrupted. I will see what he responds. It was a nice e-mail (I think). I apoligized for how things have been going lately. And I told him I would try and shut my mouth from now on and let him parent SS15 as he sees fit. It will be tough to do, but I am going to really try. I also let him know I am feeling lonely emotionally, he seems absent, doesn't ever communicate with me, so I hope this helps. But I made sure to tell him I love him and we just need to work hard to make our relationship work.
On another note DS10 has a baseball tournament for his travel team out of town on August 11th. I just made the hotel reservations. DH isn't going or SS15. I think it will be good for us. DH can have a weekend alone with SS15 to bond and DS10 and I can escape for a couple days. Hopeufully this weekend will be a good thing for our relationship.

Just did, feel a little
Just did, feel a little better now.
I have found that time for
I have found that time for myself away from FDH and SD10 is always refreshing and seems to make things at home better.
Yes, I am really looking
Yes, I am really looking forward to that weekend. I think it will be refreshing for everyone.
I do the same thing. A lot of
I do the same thing. A lot of times, I go into conversations with DH & then he goes into a tangent, and then I realize I didn't get to say what I needed to really say. So when I really feel the need to express myself without him interrupting or derailing me, I write him a letter. It also gives him ample time to really think before he reacts.
Also, the time alone will help him realize things on his own, without you there. Hopefully things get better for you guys again!!!
Yes it was nice to get things
Yes it was nice to get things out and I put thought into it, so not like fighting where you blurt something out you later regret. It feels good to get it off my chest. I tried to keep things positive and focus on the things what I WILL DO to help things instead of telling him what he is doing wrong, so hopefully he will be receptive to that approach.
