I don't post often, and never on Ohfor's threads, but I wanted to add my congratulations. Ohfor, you've been an inspiration to many of us with your eloquence and positivity. Sending positive vibes to your corner of the world, including much gratitude for what you've contributed to your world but also mine and many others.

Congratulations!!!
I have read your various threads, and you have helped countless people get through infidelity by using you as an example of how it should be handled. It is fantastic to read how your life has become the fantastic ly that all betrayed spouses hope for. Congratulations once again.
(Wish it would be possible if Ohforanewme could post one photo of his wedding party)
Betrayed Spouse. She cheated and I filed immediately upon discovering. She never even suspected that I knew until the moment she was served with reason being Adultery. Divorced: Sept, 2018. VERY happy with new life, 0 regrets

OhFor...just incredible. I'm crying tears of joy for you. What a beautiful wedding story. I can even hear the choir. Love is grand, isn't it?
ODonna, thank you for sharing.

OhFor’s gift of language will be lost to us soon, I am afraid. But not today! Today we only have joy!

He is still in the hospital. I am very glad MMS moved up the wedding.
I believe he is still reading here....

If you read this Ohforanewme, know that your beautiful words over the last couple of years have inspired and encouraged many people. Probably most of those people don't actually engage in your threads, but read and take the words to heart.
Your love journey, once you recovered from the infidelity, was one of the most beautiful stories I've ever followed. MMS has come alive in our minds with your beautiful words you've used to describe her. Your kids (now 3) have your amazing kindness to guide them through their lives.
Your life has much meaning, to so many. God Bless You.

I am one of those you have inspired. You've taught me to see the everyday things around me with renewed appreciation for their beauty and meaning. You have been a gift. Congratulations to you and your wife.

Ohfor,
You have such a gift of words. Thru your words I have been able to travel this journey with you, and "see" all the wonders you have described.
Sending you prayers and strength as you step into the next part of your journey, with your wonderful wife, and amazing children.
Thank you for letting us all ride along with you.

Congratulations Ohfor! I am also one who followed your story from JFO to Divorce to New Beginnings.
Your writing is beautifully addicting and you made me long for South Africa along with all the other amazing places you traveled.
But what I really loved about your posts is that no matter what extraordinary location you were in, you would highlight what really mattered in life like the sitting together watching a sunset, having a dance party, or sharing a meal with your family.
Also, can I just say, thank goodness the New Beginning folks discouraged that short-lived nanny "thing", as MMS is the real deal.
Thank your for being part of the community that no one wants to belong too!

Yeah, the “Bulgaria Debacle” was his only serious misstep along the way. At least he was honest about it all! And quickly insightful to see the mess he almost stepped in. Makes me chuckle.
His kids have always been his life’s work and joy, and they must be going through such anguish now. I know they have a solid extended family and support network, but losing such a great dad will affect them the rest of their lives. I lost my mother when I was a child, so I know.
