Gucci, I hear you and appreciate your advice and male perspective. It crushed me to read about the other 'woman' but I know it's a possibility...he told me he 'was interested' (in someone/dating? i dont know) awhile ago. I know he likes the attention he's been lately, especially w his modeling gig on the side..he's become very 'heady' lately, which only helps him walking out on his marriage.
From what I hear you say, it sounds like there is no hope left for this. Maybe I'm hurting myself waiting and hoping, and trying different tactics. Some folks on this site seemed to have things turn around even w OW in the picture. Some don't. Maybe I am in a bit of denial still. I know there are no guarantees, I just want to feel like I have done all I can. I just feel so heartbroken.
Yes, maybe he's for sure decided that it's over. Maybe nothing I say or do will make a difference. Maybe I should just get on w my life. I feel so in limbo. Will showing him my best self and confidence and everything make a difference? maybe not.. I guess there is nothing I can do to make him reconsider. Some folks say that realizing what they are losing (when you move on), has made the other party turn around. But maybe not. I just hope I have the strength to get through this.
