Yes. The A was like a drug to me. It was an instant buzz. I knew that I was guaranteed happy feelings. The next day, big hangover....physical problems, regrets, etc. When leaving OM for good I went into severe withdrawal. Was always thinking about getting a "hit".
Sorry to hijack here, but I just wanted to give a shout to Whatdidido.
WDID, I guess I've read some of your posts in the past, but was really interested in a quote of yours Dr. Love posted. Something about liking the hugs, but not feeling the desire, etc. That sounded precisely like what my WAW was going through. Unfortunately, I have an appt with my lawyer this afternoon to review the paperwork she filed. I just wanted to let you know how much I respect your committment to rebuilding the marriage. Good luck with everything.
