I admire your devotion and I know the strength it takes to stand. Didn't some dead guy say.. "It's better to have loved, then to have been loved"? I believe that ability makes us good people.

Anyway, no matter how your situation unfolds, it's in your power to re-direct your life in a manner that fulfills you. Rather it be a new relationship with your W, with a new partner, or by yourself.


I'm glad things are good with you, hope you enjoy your days off. Good moods are therapeutic aren't they?

Thanks. I love my wife and my family, and I am devoted to them wholeheartedly. It does take a lot of strength to 'stand', and live this way, and do the work while trying to maintain a good positive attitude. I am a good man...I'm better now than I've ever been in my life. Some dead guy also said something like..."if you love something, set it free. If it doesn't come back, hunt it down and kill it." laugh

I would like to have a new relationship with the mother of my children. But, I'm making the changes and doing the work on myself because it needed to be done...period! No other reason!
