Too nervous to eat today

I am DEAD nervous of our 1st counselling session tomorrow morning. I don't know if it's nerves or upset or what. But I can't face lunch & I'm all jittery. 

I just got the sweetest email from DH about how this is not about 'saving' our marriage but about learning how to improve communication, that's all. He even mentioned how this is going to help us prepare for the stresses of a bigger family which he feels confident is in our near future. He is actually kind of excited about this appt, whereas I feel like I'm going to puke or cry.

  • Don't be nervous! ?It sounds like this might be a really good thing-- especially if your DH has as good an attitude about it as it sounds. ?I know it's probably scary to let a stranger in on your lives, though-- even if it is a professional.

  • Good luck tomorrow.  And I'm glad that your dh is so on board with this.  Sometimes you have to drag people to counselling.

  • I'm excited for you but not to be a debbie downer, I hope this is really how he feels and not in it for a piece of ass because he needs some if he hasn't been getting any.  THat's just how guys are.  I hope saying this doesn't piss you off.  I just don't want you to get hurt again.
  • sounds like a sweet email. GL tomorrow!  I am interested to learn how it goes.  MH said no way to counseling.

  • i LOVE that email!!! that is wonderful!!! i think it is a sure sign that this is a great move!

     you have had such a crummy month...open yourself up to the possibility of letting it all go and moving on in a very positive direction- it looks like that may be coming ( if only toddlers would transition out of brat stage so easily...)

    i hope it goes really well and that you get a nice emotional break really soon!!

    Not offended at all kitty, it's a valid thought. But I also know he's not doing this for the possible ass. I know him pretty well.

  • I think its totally sweet and shows he's in it for the fight. Good for you two. Good Luck tomorrow!

    You know, DD has been GREAT. Thank God. I wouldn't have had the energy to fight her as well as DH, lol.

    And what you say about letting it all go & moving in a new positive direction is funny. Because that's how DH & I got married 7yrs ago. We were both in a bad place, and we threw caution to the wind & got married 3mths after meeting each other in the hopes that we were starting a whole fresh chapter. Hopefully this is just our 2nd chapter then.

  • oh-I'll  bet there will be lots more chapters too! good for you!

    I wish MY little princess was being great...she has the devil in her these days..ugh.

  • I'm sorry you're so nervous.  I would see things they way that your DH is seeing things ... it's a good thing, nothing to be scared of.  It will be fine, you'll see.  ((hugs))
  • You guys will do great!!

    YGM, btw.
