The ecwoodburn and I Update

[hkellick]

I'm ready to make a public entry about what happened: The good, the bad and the ugly.
As some of you know (those that either one of us consulted), ecwoodburn and I had another fight on Monday, a worse one than this weekend.
To make a long story short, she's been more hurt in her past relationships than she realized and when she gets stressed out, she becomes very insecure.
Alot of hurtful things were said, on both sides and I, upon advice from xb95, I gave her time to consider whether she thought she could handle a relationship whether me or whether her insecurities would destroy us.
After a long day of waiting to hear from her and no idea what she was thinking, she came looking for me at 9:30 and we talked until midnight. We agreed that there were certain things we needed to work on. I told her that some of the things going on hurt and bothered me. I went to bed feeling.. eh... Unsure, I guess. I was still hurt about what she said and that certain problems still exist because they didn't go away overnight.
Until, as I lay in bed, I looked past the fact she had hurt me and looked at what had happened.
She came back to me. She loves me and she wants to be with me and she wants to be able to work out her problems so that the two of us can work out as a couple. Read that again.. she LOVES me and she WANTS to be with me.
I guess that was the break-through I needed to put the fight in perspective and move on myself.
I love you too, Kristen. I want to be here for you and help us become a more succesful couple. I am here to support you as you need me. I know it won't be easy and that it won't happen overnight, but I want to help you in whatever way you need.

I'm glad things are starting to look up! :D This makes me really happy to read--helps start my day off on the wrong foot. I'm really happy for you, dude. :)

RIGHT foot. Uhm, I just woke up and I never get up this early. UGH! :P

Yay! I'm happy for you two. I knew you guys could work it out. :)

We're working it out. This wasn't some fixed, so much as talking things through and getting a new perspective.

Ahem. *clears throat*

I told you so. :P~

..But in a good way, of course. :D

Yes, you were right. :)

*hug* I'm glad you realized I wouldn't have contacted you last night if I didn't want to at least try to work this out. I was wondering if you'd missed that somehow.

I knew that, but I was feeling so hurt and upset from our fight still (I don't let things go easily) that I probably never really gave you much of a chance.
It didn't occur to me until I was going over events that I had not given you that chance and that you were reaching out for me. Part of why I needed to post this post when I did was to let you know that I did not want to slap away the hand reaching out for me.
