mk, yes, we could always go that route, but we choose not to. I build up OW as well but today I saw her.... walking to her car, and realizing what guilt she has to live with, and worry about, and earning back her H's trust, all the time trying to be a good mother with crooked morals.
Neph, PATIENCE! I will add that too. Good job for not letting H get you down today. You are right, this keeping him for his kids will get old for your H. Be the rock!
