Need some honest opinions....
Here's the stats:
FXH and I have been seperated for 3 years. (not divorced due to 1 year waiting in NC, Iraq deployment and my move. He is slotted to go back to Iraq in a few days.) Well recently we have been talking more; not about us or anything personal always about our daughter and I share things about her and her day etc. Well yesterday I was describing her outfit...she was actually describing it but has a terrible speech problem. She also has my "flair" for fashion. Well we started joking back and forth and I realized I MISS HIM. I don't miss the BS from being married and all that crap but I miss him and parenting w/ him. Am I crazy for possibly wanting a fresh start w/ him??
I should mention the whole going to Iraq thing doesnt phase me as he has been over several times.
Thanks for your honest and tactful responses
Christina

It has been my experience that time has a way of allowing us to view those from our pasts with Rose Colored Glasses. That being said, there is also the saying that time heals all wounds. It basically can go either way. If you feel that you are missing him and you might want to give it another shot, well then go for it. Take is slow and maybe consider counseling just to get the "old" stuff sorted out so that is doesn't creep back up on you later. Good luck to you!

IMHO... it is always easier to like someone we dont live with on a day to day basis.. and.. you DID fall in love with him at one point. Its possible, that now that you arent around each other constantly, you are remembering what you do love about him. I can say there are times I still miss my ex, and that was a horrible relationshop... I miss him.. but I KNOW we could never live together again..
And.. you have to go whereyour heart leads you in this case.. Good Luck in whatever decision your heart makes! Keep us posted

what I know....
What one of our stapler sisters and her husband pretty much hated each other up until surgery, and pretty much after. It was about 6 months after her surgery when things started changing between them, and they fell in love all over again. She changed, he changed and things went wonderful. Although they couldnt stand each other, they were staying together for the sake of the kids, but now their relationship is amazing. Who is to say that couldnt happen for you as well? Keep an open mind, and see what happens.

For some reason my heart just started to flutter as I read your post...I was hoping you were going to say...you missed him or something like that.
But I am a mushy-gushy,"never been kissed" favorite movie kinda girl.
Siiiggghhhhhhhhhhh
