A thing I notice from your posts is that seperation from his presence seems to do you good. Less conflict---thanks to 10min./day talking. You talk about fun you are having and seem generally happy on the trip. You haven't mentioned once about missing him, etc... Hmmm......

I'm not afraid to tell him that I don't want to go. I just don't feel like defending myself and I know that he'll want reasons and just saying, "Because I don't want to" probably won't cut the mustard with him. I just know it may take more strength than I have right now. Of course, that may change after the next few weeks or so. I really do have so much peace right now, it's wonderful!
