My husband and I are learning these exact same things. There have been times that I have felt so toxic to my husband that I would be at my parents' house and not return his calls for nearly a day (which is a long time for us). But he keeps leaving me messages that he loves me and wants to talk to me. Now I know that he has been afraid of losing me when I do things like that but I think he is learning that I love him so much I could never imagine life without him. And I am learning that running away isn't going to protect him from me as much as it hurts him. Its just so hard when I get to feeling like that!

Again, told my husband the same thing, and he chose to stay with me. It makes me so happy and hopeful to see that there are other couples who are working through this and making it work.
