It does hit out of the blue.

What distracts you? Working out? Running?

Do something like running where you leave your phone at home and keep yourself busy.

If you call him, he can't miss you.

He won't see what it's like to be alone, to be D. He needs to have a dose of reality to compare M to.

I know. You are right. I can't tell you what it is that set this off. I am at work right now so I have plenty to do. I would love to put the phone away, but since D21 is ready to give birth anyday, I need to keep it handy, at least for the time being. I know I don't want to call, and yet I miss the sound of his voice and just want to know he forgives me for the suggestive comment. But I can't force him to either, and I know from past experience that he has to mull it over in his mind before he lets it go. (((Michelle))) thanks.

Stay still, and quiet! You know that nothing you can say right not is going to help you reach your goal, so don't say anything!

And keep breathing!

(((((Jeff))))) Thanks. Whew...that panic attack was bad. I haven't had one in a while, but it has been a while since we have gone this long without speaking. I know I need to step back and let him kind of absorb everything, and I have to remember to treat him the way he wants to be treated, not the way I want to treat him. Sometimes it is hard to keep perspective so I thank God I have you all!!!

Can you take a 15 min break and go for a walk? Find someone to talk to? Go get coffee or tea?

I find sitting at my desk to actually be the hardest. It gives me too much time to think.

(((lola))) You're doing great.

Thanks (((Michelle))). I actually have been really busy this morning, but am due for a little break in about 20 minutes. I am going to step outside for a minute and just catch my breath.

My boss was in the middle of a divorce, and he and his family had a weekend getaway. He is wearing his wedding ring again!!! I really think that is great news...and just wanted to share.

I have to realize it is okay for me to get angry, and I really don't think I have been able to do that yet.

My H had an EA, and when he told me he did not want to be with me anymore I believe it was a direct result of this. This is not to say there were not problems that led to this, but I digress...again.

He met the OW at work. I knew they were friends, but he had never given me a reason to distrust him so I didn't worry. She was going through a rough divorce, and they were "smoking buddies." Now, I know that he did not actually have a PA with her, because, well, he can't. This may be the reason he is so mad at me right now for suggesting sex. (He was supposed to be on a testosterone treatment so I figured it was worth a shot. <~~~not one of my better moments). Anyway, back on the subject, the night he told me he could not be married to me anymore, I did something I never do and went through his email. I found love letters from her, not to her, and pictures she sent him of the two of them sitting together outside. I was so hurt I thought I was going to have a breakdown. He was gone, told me he was leaving me, and then all of a sudden here is this woman who took my H.

The biggest part is he really talked to her about our marriage. For such a long time, I have buried these feelings of anger because I don't want to feel like I am walking away. But I know it is okay for me to be angry, and so I am going to try not to bury the feelings, and be angry at him for hurting me. I am angry that he chose to speak to another woman instead of me. I am angry that he is not calling me. I am angry that he does not want to live with me right now. I am angry at myself for feeling like I always have to make excuses for him.

Whew.
