Islander, it sounds like you're getting stronger. It may be baby steps but it seems that way. Ive had some good days and the last few have been bad. Ive been really missing my H. He usually answers my texts about generic things only and when he didnt the last 2 days its really bothered me. Ive also had to reply to his petition for the divorce and counter petition. That just breaks my heart. Im still holding onto hope that something will happen and it wont go thru. I dont know if hes seen the OW lately. I know they spent 4 days together a couple of weeks ago. I agree with the other posts that having another person is so disrepectful but at the same time i still want to try anything to make this work. I too wish i knew what H was thinking. Does he miss me? Does he think of me? Has he completely fallen for the OW? My kids are adults now and it is true that no matter what age this affects them. They are having a hard time with him being gone and the fact that there is OW involved. My son, finally, wrote H an email after 3 months. Of course he hasnt heard anything back from him. So along with the pain and hurt i feel on a totally different level i deal with the hurt and pain my kids are feeling. I dont know if the going dark technique has worked for me. Im sure when he sees the counter petition in the D papers it wont go over very well but my atty says i have to protect myself. ANyway, I wish you strong days ahead.
