Lose my breath in waves
Knowing that every crash is bleeding the hourglass
And taking the stride
From all our lives

*Somewhere, far away from here, I saw stars. Stars that I could reach.*

D-Day was 10/9/05
He promised NC. He lied. After 4 chances, I kicked him out 1/05/06.
Since then I have survived cancer surgery and a heart attack.
Now he's sorry, but it's too late. He died an alcoholic on 9/5/17.

I think I may have posted on here pages back, but if it wasn't for this thread that i read right after dday. I highly doubt I'd be where I am now, I learned so much and the foggy jerk that I was with when I first read this is now in the past.

thanks again for your insight and sharing it really helped me.

Great post, what I would have done for this info "when I found out". I couldn't breathe or think, but I know if I had this knowledge, it would have helped me, and shortened the time & BS my FWH gave.

Infidelity is so TEXTBOOK, who would've thought!!!

Especially to those with recent DDAYS, this post is gospel, READ IT!
