Prodigal reminds me of Captain Kirk. Remember that scene in Star Trek, dating myself, where Kirk has a mind block and he needs to fight Spock to the death? He has been so brainwashed he does not remember who he is, or anyone else for that matter. Spock tries with all his might to get Kirk to break the mind meld, but to no avail. The alien brains are just too powerful. No one has ever broken through.....until Kirk, because his memory for love and friendship is so courageously stronger than any other human.
Long analogy, but I kept thinking if I just stood in front of my H and wrapped my arms around him tightly enough and looked deeply into his eyes, he would remember me. But no, his mind has been brainwashed and I saw only cold apathy and a little bit of smug hate. He is too weak now, so I must let him go before there is a fight to the death!
Prodigal got out. Obviously her mind was strong enough and she able to break free from the insanity and darkness of an affair.
My H is still in the shadows and darkness. I fear the only way he can be whole again and make things right is to divorce me and marry her. All of his other bridges are badly burned.
