Thinking of biting the bullet

[BeingMe]

Hi ACJ! Just got back from my trip, and thought I would catch up on your sitch. I am so sorry about all the hassle you have been having, especially with S15. Unfortunately, this is typical teen behaviour (and I have heard of far worse) - this is something you would've had to deal with eventually, but it is better when there is a united front between mom and dad. Your H is going to be kicking himself one day ... he may not admit it to anyone, but I bet he will. He is a fool ... and, there is nothing worse than a fool who will not learn by his mistakes.

Please, don't feel you have been replaced. No-one can replace the mother of his children, and the love of his life for almost the amount of years his OW has lived. Again, he is a fool, so he may try to do so, but it will never work. He is only fooling himself.

You have done everything you can (and beyond) to save your family ... now, it's time to save yourself and protect your daughters from your H's folly, IMHO. I am glad that you are moving toward this.

Good luck with the job hunt. Remember, that the best revenge (if that is even what you want), is a life well lived. Don't ever let them think they have beaten you down. You are better than them ... you will thrive, and be happier than you were in the M. Give it the time it needs, and the work, and you will see.

Take care, and I am sending positive vibes your way. (((((ACJ)))))
