[quote=frank_D] I try to extend the olive branch but then I keep saying 'wait a minute, I never did to her what she has done to me'. Right. That's the higher road. If you can't take it and just feel good about it without waiting for a reward don't bother taking it.
Yes it is, and it's what I strive to become. Put the hurt aside and just be able to be giving with no expectations.

So I question why I should try, why I should care. Her Stepmom said to me "Why would you take her back and possibly put your kids through this a 4th time?" Well, I don't know why. Who said anything about taking her back? She isnt asking to come back. Do you do everything with a motive, Frank? How about just doing things for LOVE? Not the effort to obtain it but just for sake of SHOWING it?
It's a challenge to be sure, to show love to someone who has hurt me so much, who is with another man, who I can't depend on to show me anything.
It's a challenge. and just for the sake of SHOWING it. Because I'm above this mess. And I know her for who she really is. I'm the only one who really does know her.
