Snodderly, that's actually a more meaningful term. I didn't really start realizing it until I began detaching from his craziness just how much he had changed and how the things he said and did were not just out of character, but out of this universe. I have to tell you though, the idea of the "mirror image" cuts like a knife somedays because I only see a stranger. One true benefit of detaching, I'm not all consumed by the OW, moreso attentive to my H and his actions and what he must be going through inside.
I have been given a book I'm planning to read tonight. It's called "My Husband's Affair Became the Best Thing That Ever Happened to Me" by Anne Bercht. I have read so much in the past few months, but this was a gift from a friend and figured why not bust this one out since it rainy this evening. Hope it's not toxic because I've read some books that were not enlightening to any degree and frankly destructive. Anyone read this one?
