Dear Starting over, I am new to this group, but not new to MLC. I've been dealing with my husband's mlc since (bd 6/2009, although his affair started in 2007. I don't respond much, but I had to respond to your post. It brought tears to my eyes. You expressed yourself so well. I can feel your pain and although my husband hasn't left, I can relate to what you are saying. I have been told he is leaving. I have felt the finality in those words. In many ways I have been living as if he is gone. I know I would always love him. I know I would have to accept it, but never get over it. Your last sentence says it all. I don't know what to say except, I am so sorry.
