Had the MC and all in all it was good. We both put our feelings on the table and I think for the first time, understood each other. MC was very encouraged by what she saw and told us that. We have "homework" this weekend to spend some quality time alone together. Last night, I spent time with the kids and we had a great time at dinner and the park. Got them to bed and since W was already in bed, just told her good night and went home.
Today after work I am going out with a friend and tomorrow hanging with the kids and maybe doing our "homework". After yesterday, I feel more at peace about the OM situation. It was the first time we talked about it in a safe setting with no agendas or getting mad/yelling, etc. MC said that is the only way to heal is to get it out and talk about it and not keep anything inside. I think we did this yesterday and I think it will be the start of something new for me. Don't know if it will help the M or not, but I do believe it will help me finally start getting over the anger and the hurt of this.
I am keeping up with the GAL, doing things with friends, going to sporting events, working out, playing basketball, etc. Still working on the "acting as if" as I have ups and downs there, but I keep plugging along. Looking forward to the weekend and having some fun.
