And Starsky, not all people who go here need challenge, sometimes they go here to vent, to journal, to share their thoughts, to be validated....
I learn a lot from other people's sitches and how they think.
You are a typical male, always "fixing"!!!!!
Well, that I am, but I believe that the proper forum etiquette in those situations is for the OP to label them as such -- "just venting" or whatever, and they specifically say that they are NOT seeking advice or help. If someone doesn't say that, I assume they're here seeking help, especially when their situations have been in limbo for so long.
In any event, I will leave you alone, as I only seem to aggravate you and that certainly wasn't my intent. My normal "M.O." is to not intervene where people are content with their sitches (even if I disagree with the methods), but your posts cycle from a calm "I'm content with the way things are" to a distraught "this isn't working for me!" and then back again.

P.S. You can tell your husband that there IS a sort of "magic pill" for helping with re-attraction to one's spouse. It's called "NO CONTACT WITH OW", and it's pretty much a medical/physiological fact that it works.
