Our 39th wedding anniversary is Saturday, and I feel mostly numb about it. My emotions are so mixed. At times, I'd like to acknowledge it. Other times, it's just another day of trying to heal from the nightmare my WH brought into our lives. Does anyone have any similar experience?

Married over 40 yrs
Me: 63 yrs old, always faithful
WS: 66 yrs old, 2 ONS 1978, EA (he says) In 2013

DDays: 12/11/13, 12/18/13, 12/27/13 (he's big on TT)
Also discovered he cheated with 2 women while we were engaged, 40 years after the fact.

I just posted about this in the third week of July. I called WH while I was out of town and said, "We have nothing to celebrate, so no cards, no gifts."

Others said that they "changed" celebration dates, but I think that's hard too. We were so happy on that date.

Hell, I've subtracted two years off our marriage....making my son 'illegitimate' - not really, I HATE that term!

Sorry you are going through this.

Me: 60, WH 67
Married: 23 years
DS 21, 2 adult stepdaughters
DDay: Oct. 14, 2013
Divorced Jan. 2016
