Ha the aceptance thing! The day I accepted it, which I have to say was the day my H remarried (along time after he left) but that was the day I truly started to heal. For me I had to accept the reality of the situation. No more false hope, no more pinning my hopes on statistics, MLC stages etc. Just accepting what was happening at that stage in my life. Did I like it -no. Did I stop loving my h-no. I still have odd moments when I think of the could haves and should haves. I still feel that my life was stolen from me, I was replaced by someone who now has my life. The truth is she has not got my life because the man she now has is someone I no longer know. His morals and values are not those we shared. I am still me and she will never be me( although she tried to copy me) This takes time Cinders much longer than you think but YOU will get to that point. I know you will. Your spirit and generosity and love will be what brings you to that elusive acceptance.
