My peanut bounced back from the horrible years following affair/divorce. She's now a sophomore and just an amazing kid. I'm in a wonderful (HEALTHY!) relationship with XH's former best friend (best man in our wedding).......funny how things turn out sometimes.
I recommended this site to a girl at work today. I was sad to see there are now 41k+ members. It's great people have found this place, just so sad that there is a need
Glad to see some positive stories in General. And yes it is sad the number of members there is on here but it speaks about how great this place is for us going through infidelity hell.

This too shall pass I edit a lot because that stupid box is so small!
I am so glad to hear about peanut. I remember what a rough time she was having.
I'm so happy for you!!!!
Glad to hear you're doing well.
When another woman takes your husband, sometimes the best thing you can do for yourself is to LET HER HAVE him. OC born 2001 DDay 2002 Divorced 2003 Remarried 2008 (New Guy)
There is life after all this mess.

Heartache, sorry you find yourself here & hope things are going well for you.
BP!!! I have vague memories of a mountain top proposal....am I right? How are your kids? Son and daughter if I remember correctly.
Tears, Sad & NL.....yes a sophomore! I can't believe how fast they grow. Sheesh...was she in 2nd grade when this started? Maybe 3rd? It feels like a lifetime ago.
Amazing how the worst thing I've been through in my life could lead me to the best thing. I will be leaving snowy winters for warmer winters on the beach after Peanut graduates.
Any updates on anyone I might remember? I am terrible with names. Lady from MA with daughter who was sick, Katherine41, BasicGuy....I'm strugling to remember more.
(Missy's doing pretty good too:)
I'm doing great! Married the greatest guy last year! Katherine41 was my maid of honor! Funny how you meet your best and lifelong friends here.
DD is 10! I can't believe she is is big. Now have a DSD, she is 8.
Life is pretty sweet. DH is in his last year of law school so things are hectic. Message me!
Anyone here from Moe? Nelm got married recently, looks very happy!
How ironic. I was just thinking about you recently and wondered what happened to you and peanut.
I am glad you posted with an update! Glad to hear that you both are doing so well~~!!
DD 6-14
I am well and happy!
As you can see from Only's post, she and I keep in touch IRL and I was lucky enough to be with her on her wedding day.
Though I have not re-married, I have been in a relationship or so. With the economy, I've worked a lot as my company rapidly changed over a two-year period. So mostly, I've been married to work. Still, I've recently started a new relationship. I think Only approves of this one.
My children keep me very busy. I'm traveling more this year. I managed to save enough to buy a very small vacation home in a place I love, and I'll be there Thanksgiving.
The infidelity that ended my marriage is seldom in my thoughts. So hard to believe, given it never left my thoughts for so long. On that front? My WXH is still a narcissist . . . but has apologized to me in a meaningful way. In fact, he's now a Betrayed SO and truly de-fogged through the experience. He's sickened (as much as a narcissist can be) by what he did to our marriage, and though I recognize the tracks of the karma bus across his back, I don't relish it like I supposed.
With all the ups and downs, I can say I'm truly glad that my marriage ended. I'm proud of what I have accomplished. My family is wonderful. Life is good.
