Hi BnB - You are so right, NG is trying to work through this as best he can, and needs to see only supportive strength. The rest of it can really wait till later, much later.
I just wanted to come over and check out your thread. I had to go back and check out some of your previous threads to be sure that NG and H were one and the same guy
I didn't want to assume that they were and then find out that NG stood for new guy.
I did read a post that suggested looking up nice in the dictionary. LOL when I tried that, who would have thought?
BTW we are the same age and our Hs are close too. My H and I are also high school sweethearts, although when we first met I was still in school and H was a hot looking older guy with a cool car, a job, and almost old enough to buy beer. A lot of water under the bridge since then.
A lot has happened for everyone in the month i could not be on here. Your stitch is amazing. You are so strong and insiteful. You have come a long way with all you hard work and perserverence. Wonderful job. I hope that some day soon I will bw where you are.
Any luck in taking a break or slowing down. I like your point that the NG is not the same and neither are you but that you can both make improvements in yourselves because things in the past are just that in the past and the future looks very bright for you
Keep up good work I have learned a lot from you. Take care Bwlieve
Hi BnB - Everybody here brings gifts - be they support, honesty, comaraderie, 2x4s, or just plain 'hi's. I dread to think how my life would have turned out without this BB and the community of wonderful people here
Your thoughts are especially welcome, because you are in a very similar situation, and also because you process things a little differently to me, and so your perspective adds dimension to how I may handle a situation
Hi Pam - Moi, with a new guy? Very unlikely. Though I am seeing my NG as a New Guy more and more everyday, so hey, perhaps I was sub-consciously being prophetic way back then - wow
I do feel good about your sitch though. I think given time and the right nurturing, your H will be more devoted to you than before. NG is a much more considerate partner now, much more sensitive to my needs.
Back to work, and doing some of the things I get paid to do Slowly
