I agree, ruby, that trust and loyalty would be the hardest things to rebuild. Not sure how that happens, but it seems there are situations where is HAS happened.
I, however, do not allow myself to have hope about this. First of all, I'm not sure I want hope. Part of me feels like it would be easier at this point if H continued on his path away from me & maintained R with OW. I think it wouldn't take too much more for me to walk away.
BUT, I am enjoying my new job & that is a very positive highlight in my life. My boys are starting their fall activities in full force, so my life has suddenly gone from lazy, summer mode to a full-fledged packed schedule!
And, with those distractions I am happy enough to just let things be (however they be) with my H.
FYI- He has been complimenting more frequently when I arrive home from work and he is there (dressed up)...haven't had that in a while! I have complimented him as well (he works out A LOT & I know WOA is his #1 LL). (Is mine too !)
Have refrained from texting cute guy this week...hasn't been easy, though!
