Welcome to the board time31sing,


::What are your thoughts, do you think it can work if we come together and work on it together going forward?


- Yes, I do think it can work if you work on this together. If fact, I think it is the only that things will have a chance of working out.


I think going to see his counselor with him is a very good idea. I also agree that you should take things slowly for a while. Also it is normal to be worried about getting hurt again since things didn't work out the frist time.

'The real thing that bothers me is that he made a comment about his issue with monogomy and commitment.'


If he is still having problems then this therapy session will be good for both of you. You are both doing the right thing. Be very careful about getting involved again and finding yourself in the same place.
