Baby Steps. - PTSD

Traci08 · 08-23-2009, 10:15 AM

My husband and I were having a conversation about blackberries. I asked him how much he paid for his. He asked if I was thinking about getting one. I said yes, I would like to have one since it would come in handy with my job. He then told me he pays around 90.00 a month for the line and the package plan. Then he sends me a text message stating, if I can, he doesn't want me to sign up for another 2 yr contract to get the blackberry, because he wants us, YES, I said it US to switch to AT&T once his contract is up with Verizon. I was ecstatic! This tells me he's been thinking about our future, together.

We were out a few weekends ago and he said that he wants us to use one bank account.

This was like the best news ever! He is coming down here today either to pick up our son to spend the day with him up at his parents, then either him or his dad will be bringing him back sometime this evening. I think I am finally getting through to him that I love him and this is something he doesn't have to do alone. I think he finally realizes that I do understand him a lot more than he thought I did. Its baby steps, but he's starting to try.
