I'm glad you have someone you can confide in and let you know that you are doing the right thing no matter how things turn out. (does that make sense?) I have talked to my priest and feel better after doing so.
I don't want to put a damper on things, but how do you feel about an annulment? If I get D, I would like to continue to fully participate in my church. An annulment, to me, seems to make everything, M, kids, just like it all didn't happen. It just leaves a bad taste in my mouth. We can all get married again in the church and still be able to take communion and be full fledged Catholics. In a sense, it's like it is all very temporary and if something happens again, we just wipe the slate clean and start all over.
I'm sorry, man. I have been thinking about all of this and it just struck a chord with me. I talked to a L yesterday and it really didn't make me feel any better, you know?
Anyway, I am glad to read you are doing good. I continue to turn to my faith and realize that God helps us when we need it the most. I'm glad you have your faith to lean on. It does help so much. Like I said before, we sometimes have to really listen to hear what God want because it is often not what we want. I find myself wishing He would shout in my face so I couldn't miss what He was telling me. I get the feeling I still wouldn't hear Him if it wasn't what I wanted to hear.
Stay strong and continue to lean on God, family and friends. You can get through this, we all can!
