I wrote in my jounal before H arrived to get his things - I can not be angry anymore. I left my anger in my jounal - it is not good for the kids or me. When he arrived I asked for 5 minutes. Told him I can not be angry anymore - I still hate what he did and hurts like heck but the anger is tearing me up. I never could stay mad with him! No matter what he did and trust me we have had some bumps in the road.

For all of us to be healthy (kids and me) H and I have to begin on working on becoming friends (with boundaries of course). He agreed and then asked if I needed a HUG - we hugged for about 5 minutes!! Nothing more just a hug and telling each other that no matter what happens we will be okay.

I also asked about the OW - he said that she has her own issues right now - not sure if her H has found out what has happened. But there has been little or no contact in the past week.

My D16 and I left while he was moving things out and when we returned H and I had a couple of laughs with the kids.

I know that there is ALOT more work to do - but this was a step in the right directions of getting my Friend BACK! If all I can have is his friendship I will take it at this point - we have been a part of eachothers lives since I was 17!!
