Yesterday morning I talked to him about the fantasy land he is living in. This morning he asked if I wanted to have a smoke with him before work, and I said no. I have been for a few days. Today he is telling me that his sister is coming to visit because she thinks she can "save him." I wrote back that only he can. He said that he keeps trying to tell her that. He then told me that he got wood for the house today and I said "thank you." Then he wrote that he did it thinking that it would make him feel better. After a while I wrote back telling him that I hope he does feel better. No other texts.

I'm sorry frown ...this is tough stuff... I get that, I had 3 years of an in-house mlc-er in multiple EA's and PA's.

There is the 72-hour rule meme around here... wait 72-hours before doing/saying anything, especially when emotionally charged.

It really helped me act like the person I wanted, and was trying, to be.

Is there something you can distract yourself with? Exercise, a walk in nature, etc?

It will. If someone had told me NYE 2011 that it would get better, my stbxw's mlc would be one of the best things that ever happened to me, I would have punched them in the face, lol.

Do the work on yourself, and it can be/will be better, regardless of the outcome of our sitches.

Please remember in all this heartache, anger and all, that YOU matter. We direct all this energy to the spouses and sitch, please remember to direct some of that energy to YOU.

It does get better.

I am right there with you today T-Mom.

I am trying hard to stay focused on believing that it will get better.

Love your signature quote. Thoughts and prayers are with you.

Stay strong!

T^2, thanks for the reminder of the 72 hour meme

Hi T - sorry it's a tough day for you. I often find that some calmness follows my worst times. I'm in pieces one day, and the next I feel serene. I hope that's the case for you. Is there something nice you can do to help settle yourself a little? Remember to not let your mind work overtime. You can get through today, and then tomorrow is another day...
