(((Serenity))) I came back when I had a few minutes to give a detailed reply to your earlier post here, only to discover that you had already made another post. As always, thank you.

focusing on becoming a better person...

That's the whole point, and it's so easy to lost focus on it.

As I said before, I'm not blaming this on my W's bipolar, achoholism, whatever. This is want initially attracted me to DB: taking care of yourself so that no matter what the outcome, you will be a better person as a result.

Fear held me back...I was willing to keep my H around because I feared the unknown and I see so many people here doing that, that it infuriates me...

oh, I have to think hard about this one. My W basically told me that she only stayed M to me all these years, and avoided ever telling me her M concerns, out of FEAR over what would happen. How has fear held me back? Maybe I was scared of the same thing. Thank you for pointing this out.

I will keep you and your children in my prayers.

Thank you; you are in my prayers too. At the risk of sounding like a doormat; let's include my W in those prayers too. I'm working on my anger anyway!
