What a difference...

a few days, my disapearance and some willingness to make change makes.

just had a great/very positive conversation with that boy.
who is being honest.
and turns out - while his story was bunk before, there still was no infidelity.

and his sentiments on everything are genuine. finally.

and i feel so much better going to bed tonight.

it's going to have to be a slow progression back into things (if it will happen at all) but i honestly have faith in this one.
