yes its quite illuminating

I'm ok ish. Hope you do organise a break - if you choose a spa or activity type break you easily get to know people and can chill as well.
He s on his best behaviour/really trying (double meaning here). I don't know whether I've shot myself in the foort giving him the chance to change becuase its so hard to forgive his past behaviour and he thinks things are on an even keel and will get back to normal. he's invited me to a work doo but i had to remind him what he said his collegues said/thought about me which sounded really derogatory. (of course it wasn't true just wanted to wind me up). I'd like to say don't come home this weekend but his behaviour doesn't warrant it. so i think I'll arrange to go out during the day (a usual trigger) so I get some peace and we test this change for real.
good luck organising a break/change of scene
