Thanks undefeated! Yes, I do consider this a taste of karma. I do recall in some of my earlier conversations with H that HE thought that the only reason I wanted R was because it didn't work out with the OM. He also said maybe OM could do a better job than him. I assured him this was NOT the case and that I loved him very much.

That being said, I'm sure he will remain cautious for quite some time. I'm certain that he has received my THANK YOU card with an invitation to spend Valentine's Day together but I have not received a response but am patient and cannot be angry if he chooses not to reply. Karma is a mutha...

Interesting you mentioned "selective memory" because I recall thinking that my OM treated me a lot better than my husband in the beginning and then shortly there after I started to realize the OM could NEVER compare to my H.

I still however, realize my contributions to the decline in my marriage prior to separation and have apologized to my H without making excuses which was HUGE for me but necessary and well needed.

Again thank you everyone for taking the time to listen and respond to me. I truly appreciate it.
