Hi Veronica!
Thanks for posting.. if nothing else, this website makes you feel like you are not going mad! That you are not alone. That it isnt only you that this is happenning to.. to have someone you have known so well now insist on writing you emails with no personal pronouns in!!!

I was at the friendship stage and spending long stretches with him (12 hours, or even overnight) until a week before he got together with Helen. Things have been precarious since then. I was convinced there was no OW either, but she was an EA, he was phoning her Aug 07 secretly! So be open to the possibility?

I've barely initiated contact for 5 months and phoned him only once.. but he has called me every 3-4 weeks and emails sporadically. I think the fact that they have depression makes it hard to see the truth, as depressed people have negative thinking and dont make good choices and are inherently selfish.
