      Thinking of you today, I hope you are well.

    • High Five

      From magicjuju September 30

      I am happy that you are now free from the lies. I don't know why we protect them when they break our trust??? Be careful in the manner in which you "sing". You have all the reasons in the world to break apart the lies, but I just don't want you to come across "too eager" to tell all. Once you start telling the truth about him, people will put the pieces together and say, now, I know why he said or did this or that. The pieces will all fall together==they always do. I wish I had only wasted 16 months and not 22 years.

    • High Five

      From thelost1e September 30

      I'm SO glad to hear the good news! I have so much respect for you, not alot of women get out of these realtionships...of course I hate to refer to them as a relationship when your husband has done to you what he has. I have thought about you often since I wrote you last. I'm so glad for you, others will read what you have done and will be inspired to follow suit. Keep me informed of what happens with you, and remember...if you find yourself in a questionable position with the next man, ask yourself, if this was my daughter going thru this, what advice would I give her? I'm so happy for you sudzy!

    • I’m With You

      From Deceived September 30

      Making the decision that it's finally enough is hard but it's such a relief once you've made peace with it. I somehow felt I had failed even though he was the one cheating.

    • Close Infidelity

      I was married for 22.5 yrs. My H confessed on 6/8/07. 28 years to the date he first asked me to be his girlfriend. I know the OW. She was a co-worker of his. My family was a guest in her right before the affair started. Their affair lasted 2.5 months. My H told me during his confession he didn't love me or know what love was. He had not had any emotional feelings for anyone for 3 yrs, not even our kids. He thought our marriage was over. He never told me he was unhappy!!

      Treatments

      Couples Counseling Not Working
      We went to two sessions. H concerned about the cost. Wanted to try to work it out on our own.
      Psychotherapy Too Soon to Tell
      I'm on my 3rd counselor. The 1st was a crisis councelor. The 2nd one really messed me up and made me feel worse. Our marriage would have failed under her care. I feel stronger but the anger is coming out. All 3 have said my H cheated to get out of the marriage. He didn't have the courage to tell me on his own.
      Time Too Soon to Tell
      Taking one day at a time. We are spending time together as a couple for the 1st time in years. We are trying to enjoy each other for who we have become.
