M
I am sorry for your pain..the road does get quite bumpy..
and sometimes the pain is still overwhelming
all of us here can validate how hard your situation is and many of us travel down a similar road with our H
The OW..she obviously is also into her self as your H is great match I suppose
I dont really know the right thing here as I have often wondered how I might handle OW if she suddenly pops in our picture
maybe just slow down and take care of you
you have been doing great and you are obviously a wonderful mom
maybe give yourself some hopeful affirmations
and I love what you said to your girls
they can talk to you
life is crazy and our MLCer H have made it painfully aware to our children that nothing is forever not even daddy
so our kids have us and a partial dad
but b/c they have us and dad is still in the picture they are still ok
your girls will be ok..just another bump
they will understand later
I tell my kids 13 and 7
Daddy is sick now
we pray he will get stronger and better
He still loves them very much
sometimes adults make bad choices
Its not their fault
mommy is ok..that is more important for them to see
Mommy made it through
Mommy is here for you
R and M may not be forever
maybe that is a better message than the cinderella message I got
peace
