Hello everyone, It's been a while since I posted. First of all I apologize for not thanking MHL, Kissak and Punkin for their posts to my tread for so long...thank you, all of my DB friends have a special place in my heart...you played a big part in my journey through the biggest upset of my life.

I just wanted to post an update, maybe it will help someone to see that life could be beautiful again.

It's been 6 months since my last update. I'm doing just great smile I'm very happy and content with my life. I wake up with a smile on my face every morning. I'm very much in love with my sweetie...it's been 10 months and its wonderful...I feel very lucky that I'm able to experience this kind of love again. I feel loved, appreciated and spoiled by him and he makes me smile every day.

As for my ex...I hardly ever think about him...the pain is boxed away...somewhere deep inside and I just don't go there anymore...My Ex is still with OW...he keeps an apartment here, but mostly lives with OW in her town. Flies in about once in 6 weeks, sees daughter couple of times and flies out again...

Daughter reports that he is still angry and often seems depressed and sad. He spent Xmas and New years alone as OW went away by herself. When I have contact with him (not often) he seems happy to see me, tries to start conversations, has a huge grin on his face like he is happy to see me, asks about my family and tries to be friends. He even gave me a Christmas present. I'm courteous, but not interested in friendship with him. After I turned him down when he asked for the last reconciliation, he doesn't try anymore. He knows that I'm happy in my new relationship and even met my BF. At one point my ex made a statement to me "You look so happy with him, I guess I did you a favor"....I could have slapped him for that. I loved him so much...for over 30 years...and I gave him 2 years to muddle through his MLC...I gave him so many chances...now it's too late, he has lost me.

My ex did not file for a divorce and never talked about it and I'm thinking that I will have to do that myself.

That's it in a nutshell, hope everyone is doing well...love you all.

Mila
