I have left the R forum and have moved to General. Thank you everyone with whom I've corresponded here. I appreciate the encouragement and love that you have given me.

Imagine a ship trying to set sail while towing an anchor. Cutting free is not a gift to the anchor. You must release that burden, not because the anchor is worthy, but because the ship is.

I'll see you there, Skan. I go to both, still. I'm not sure if R is what I'm doing. I KNOW HE IS. But, I say fuck him in my mind every day, all day...

I bounce between here and R too because my moods change and my WH's behavior can change rapidly. I can't stick with full R yet.

This is a non linear path. sigh.

Expect to stumble.

Affairs are not unique in America...and, at times, appear to be the norm. sigh.

However, each of us are unique...and only we know what we are capable of.

I will tell you that your posts have helped me along the way. So, just in case you think what you are going through is a waste of time and energy...please think again. At any given moment one of your posts saved another marriage for another day...this is no small thing.

I pray that you will find the path that is right for you. I too get tired and close to breaking.

God be with you. God be with us all.

I'll see you over there as I post a lot in General simply because I sometimes worry about name calling the OW and General is a safer forum for me depending on how I'm feeling

I post here and there and my feeling is we have something to contribute. Who knows when one phrase or comment can assist another. After all we are trying to "survive"

Ultimately, to heal and survive.

Hey everyone. Still hanging in there. I'm back in the house, at least, and we're starting to talk. I have an appointment to go with him to his IC next week so his IC can answer my questions. No trust, of course. But if there is one thing that I have learned with SI, it's that I can do things in my own good time and no one elses. We shall see how it goes.
