Yes,LL you will be OK. It takes time to get the relationship going in its new healthy direction. The thoughts of OW will always surface but they wont be as painful. Your H and mine could be the same man. But that can't be because they leave and return home at the same time. I to get frustrated and want all that special attention. I get it from lots of other people why I don't go for it I will never know. One thought that keeps me going is I turned this thing around with the help of DBing I have got the family back on track. When I see H interacting with the children. I know why I did this and why I am here. I enjoy myself and have just learned to accept the way H is. One thing I did do that might help. My H is the same as yours with he works hard and when he comes home he is finally happy to be here. We never left we want to run. H called I asked him if he wanted to go to the movies, He said no, I said I'm going by myself anyway. That night the cell was ringing and he called to say what movie theatre are you going to. I told him he met me. Of course he chose the movie I didnt get to see what I wanted. That didnt matter. You are doing a great job. Keep those smiles up make it a fun place to return too. The sex thing I think they are just tired getting old. Oh Well. Just my thoughts. I enjoy reading your post. You help me sort out my thoughts. Take care Loretta Just my thoughts.
