I guess if the chances of R in these sitchs is rare, then sometimes i question why I'm here, why are we all here??
What odds do you need to make it worth it to you? What IS your M worth to you?
If it was 50% do you still stand? At 40%? How about only 1%? At what point do you give up?
That is for you determine. Your strength. Your committment. Your values.
We can't make that decision for you.
But I will paraphrase Jack3 as I have before...
"F the odds."
^^^ Exactly
Cam - ALL of our situations here are/were dire when we came here. All of us were in a very dark place at first. That will improve.
While it is probably true that the odds of you saving your M are against you, those odds are a big fat ZERO if YOU give up.
At some point, you may find that you are ready to give up. When you are ready you will know.
But I'm telling you not to let others' opinions as to whether or not you have a chance influence you. F them... they have no clue about what is in your heart. What you can endure for your W and your M is you are up for it...
And up for it knowing that you very well may NOT succeed.
Listen man... my W left me in November. Told me that she was done. Wanted a divorce. Asked me to go file with her. I refused. Told her I would cooperate, but would not help her end our family. She began dating.
Ok... now... almost 10 months later... I am not divorced... hell, paperwork hasn't even been filed.
AND... my W is considering reconciliation.
There is always hope my friend.
What you do with that is up to you.
