H and I were talking in the car today and I asked him what he would do if he ever felt the way he did before the affair happened again. How does he know he won't do it again?
His answer was: No matter what, I will never hurt you like that again. I've seen you struggle with the pain I caused and nothing is worth doing that to you again. I hurt myself too. I don't ever want either one of us to go through this again.
I think we're getting there.

Think of the haters in your life as sandpaper; they’ll scratch you up time and time again but in the end you’re polished, smooth, and spotless..while they end up useless
We make a living by what we get, but we make a life by what we give.

We had the very same conversation this afternoon. We had stopped for a picnic in the mountains on our way home from celebrating our 25th anniversary. I chose a beautiful spot over looking the glacier river. We had champagne, cheese, grapes......and just us. My H said that this whole event has opened his eyes so wide. So much was unknown to him before the A. He didn't know how much I was missing our marriage and how much pain I was carrying. My courage and strength have made him see how horribly wrong he had been. He too said he will never hurt me that way again....he had no idea that this much hurt could be endured. He also said he is a very lucky man that I have wanted to put this behind us. It was a beautiful moment for me. I felt all my hard work had finally rewarded me.
