Take The Long Way Home...

[ninelives]

It is difficult when you see the writing and the feeling of reality hits home. I cried when I saw her name signed on the separation paper but I got through it and so will you FOBD.

I know what you mean about the surreal feeling when you see the vs thing. You were a team and it was US. But the key word is "was"

I remember when I first found out about the OM , I said that I would love to engage in a fight with him and beat the crap out of him and my wife said dont do that.

I said something like, who would you be rooting for and then it dawned on me, she would be rooting for him. My bestfriend would want to see me get beat up.

I know how silly that sounds but it was so incredible to me that she would actually feel that way despite all we've been through.

It will get easier for all of us FOBD, someday.

We have to experience all these things, step by step and come out the other side as better people, with or without them.
