Well, yes, it's been 2 1/2 months since the bomb, and a lot has happened -- I only scratched the surface (you should see the journal I've been keeping!)

My heart goes out to all these children of all the DB'ers here in these forums. There are a lot of very good people I have seen participating here, and I am learning a great deal from their testimonies and advice. I can't tell you how much encourgement that gives someone like me to know that I am not alone, but at the same time it breaks me up to think that all these kids have to be the truly innocent victims of our spouses' actions.

Absolutely. It started with me and my depression and my foolish disatisfaction with my lot in life, taking for granted the love of a good wife and the adolation of two sweet little boys. My sin was dispair (I just never realized that it carried the death penalty.)

Sadly, no, she is in utter denial and is convinced she is still 100% the victim in this. But then that just means she's acting true to her new archetype, the WAW, right?
Thanks, TAL. I really appreciate your and everyone else's willingness to share your insights and experience with those still new to this rough road we travel.
