Hi GIMA, yours is one of the threads I have been quietly following still.

I know what you mean about Church and sermons. For the better part of the last 2 years, there have been many times when I felt like there were words aimed right between the eyes, either for me, or my W, or both of us. Some of them left my then "still very much hung up on OM" W in tears, and she was rather stridently anti-religion.

As for your point about attractiveness of W and other women, some of it I find familiar. Weeks ago in my thread, I mused a bit about the potential pitfalls of detaching, and about dealing with the feelings of resentment and continual detachment (I don't think it's a process everyone can just switch off just like that) even as the WAS starts to see daylight or even does a complete turnaround and starts wanting the M too. The LBS may have moved on / been changed in ways beyond his / her control.

It's good that you have re-focused on what is really important and the hard work you have put into your M.

(Obviously) wishing you all the best.
