HI Tal, I like your insights. Even though I'm not in the piecing part of things yet (not even close)--but I also think about the humiliation aspect often and always wonder if I'd be able to get over it, would be able to deal with the fact that people know H went outside the M for EA/PA--it's hard not to feel inadequat about it all. I still feel a bit humilated when I go to the gym because I don't know what people think or really know--but I was ok with all that for awhile until I learned that a friend took OW to the aport when she last visited and that friend works at the gym--so I'm sure as gossip spreads that it was tossed around the OW was here visiting H and poor W doesn't know or whatever--it's a vicious circle!!!
Hang in there though-it seems that you are identifying the problems and realize that they could become bigger problems if left to manifest themselves. I think you are amazing in your reflections and insights about yourself and your H. Good job! Have a super long weekend with H!
