Keep those prayer coming. After she called me this morning I later called and asked her to go to a neighboring town to do some shopping and she agreed. We spend time together from about 5PM till about 12AM, everything went great. We have both agreed she can continue to live in her apartment until we feel we are ready to be back together full time. In the meantime we are going to be doing things together kind of like a new dating experience. We've both also agreed that each night before we part ways for the day to each write down highlights of the day with one another. We will both write what we think the day has been like then we will exchange what we wrote and if there's a large discrepency we'll discuss how the problem can be worked out fairly for both. We agreed that when we wrote our summary for the day we would rate the day with the other either bad, fair, good, or very good and discuss discrepencies then I will sign off on what she wrote and she will sign off on what I wrote. This way there's none of this coming back and saying you did or didn't do such and such. This should put us both to bed in a good mood and be able to wake up in the mornings feeling good about one another. I'm a very outspoken person and sometimes say things I shouldn't. She's not as outspoken but also says things she shouldn't. We are hoping this will allow both of us speak freely about good and bad and work it out before we retire for the night. Often I might say something to her not meaning anything by it but she takes it the wrong way and never says anything about it. I think part of the problem is things that I may say or do that I don't mean anything by she bottles up as bad and then at some point she simply blows up when there was really nothing wrong in the first place. I'm not laying blame on her I just think sometimes she takes things to literally and she thinks I don't care for her when really she's the most important part of my life besides God. No one will ever convince me that God doesn't answer prayer and that he won't get involved in marital disputes if you ask with an open heart that you''re both willing to make the changes it takes to make the marriage work. If I'd been asking God to change her and didn't also ask him to help me make the changes I needed to make the marriage work it would have shown that I was selfish and that my way was the only way, but I prayed for him to help us both change to meet the others needs/wants. By doing this I think we can turn this separation into a healthy productive marriage.
