I guess I am in piecing really altho' I stay here as my 'gang' is here. Also I am not sure exactly when you finish piecing. My M is good again - I just have ups and downs in myself. I arrived on these boards after OP was gone and dusted. A year after. But I still couldn't stop thinking about her. That's why I came here. If you look at my first thread you'll see exactly why I arrived!!
Funnily enough I was just saying to lwb that my H and I were talking last night about S's who have A's and then can't stop contact with OP. MY H stopped contact in one go. It was all transparent. I could not have coped with any continued contact. She worked for him and so she had to go. I was pissed off at the payout she got and so was he!!!!!! Lawyers recommended not to quibble and we let the management team deal with it so H was not involved - yuck. The thought of her getting a pay off for what she engineered really makes me mad
I think that after you get back together you are having to continually work on things. To begin with I could never have thought anything positive came out of the A. I tried reading the book 'Just Good Friends' and it made me so mad I chucked it across the room. LOL
Now I have moved on a bit I can see that we ARE much stronger than before. That although I feel I lost a lot I have gained somethings as well. The more time goes by, the more I see the plus to it all.
I hope that makes you see that there is light at the end of the tunnel. Do keep on keeping on. It really can be worth it. Also, to see my children so relaxed and loving both their parents is great. They obviously are secure.
