Hi, Mike! I somehow have seen your name around so wanted to meet you and come by your thread. I read your recent post today, and will have to go into the others too. I find it interesting that you're having anger #s, b/c I have been having those too recently. I think I was channeling my anger into hatred for the OW, but got the divorce papers in the mail last week and since then I feel a good amount of anger at my H. I'm tired of his stupidity (I used to respect him for his intelligence but he doesn't seem to use it anymore) and somebody mentioned fear, and I think that's part of it--H put in the d papers that he wants the kids to live with him instead of me like they have been basically for their lives.
But anyway, I really have absolutely no advice to offer about anger, b/c I'm struggling with that too recently. Maybe it's kind of a natural reaction when one is betrayed by a loved one to feel anger? But I would like to lessen it at least, b/c I don't want to be an angry, bitter person and decided that long ago (easier said than done I guess). Hope you don't mind me posting on your thread! Karen
