You say you love me, so young I believed. And you sounded so sincere. How was I to guess, I was being deceived. Instead I gave what I held so dear.
Now again you say it's over 'tween us But we can see each other just for fun. As a way of bringing back good times When for me you were the only one.
But now I know what you're about, And what is really you. I don't need you to make me whole. I can do better, it's true.
No longer Like a moth to a flame, No longer Like Blanch was to Stan, No longer Like Sid was to Cleo. Now I'm on my feet again.
Now time has had its way with me, So many years I've lost track. I know I gave you my heart; just never thought to get it back.
Now I know it's always been mine to give, And never yours to take. I am stronger than you know, and can fix what any can break.
No longer Like a moth to a flame, No longer Like Blanch was to Stan, No longer Like Sid was to Cleo. Now I'm on my feet again.
Whaddya think?
As for your sitch, I'm glad you and the W made the two backed beast. My W and I recently did the same and I found it to be very difficult for several reasons. Two of them were the obvious two affairs, but the third was that once I had sex with her, I gave up my power over her. If the worst happened and we got a D, we would now have to fight for children and property. The law in my stated says if you have sex after finding out about the affair, you have reconciled and starting from scratch. So now I don't have any leverage. I just hope I don't need it.
Afterward, she cried and I spent the next hour just holding her. It was kinda nice, but I know we have a long way to go. My demons will not let me go...
