Tried to pick up a copy of "Love Must Be Tough" as suggested by Lester, but not one store had it! Got a pointless magazine instead, as well as "The Law of Attraction". My partner read "The Secret" and decided that it was telling her to leave and go have an affair. I bought it for her to help help her with her nusiness, and she told me it backfired, showing her that the OP was brought to her because she "put it out there". Crap. Score one more for me.

You're so right when you say the OPs aren't blameless. My partner always heard me say about others in this situation: "the first thing the OP knows about the cheater is that the cheater was willing to betray the love, trust, and commitment of their spouse, and the first thing the cheater knows about the OP is that the OP was willing to help the cheater do it." I wonder if this crosses her mind anytime?

Yes, you're right--she's most certainly on a high...but drugs don't last forever (or so I hope). They must wear off eventually, like the woefully ineffective "sleeping aid" I was prescribed...

And another night begins, my crazy mind picturing the two of them together and my DB-ing self trying to block the thoughts. But the thoughts even come when I do manage to sleep and they wake me up. How do I shut it down when I'm sleeping??
