Thanks for sharing KG...I was touched by your update as well.
Much of what you wrote and alot of the dynamics w/ your WAS u described felt like u were describing my sitch or some exact thoughts in my head.
It is great to witness growth in you and is another example that gives me hope to progress.
I have been unable to get to forgiveness for my WAW and I will live with it and be affected by it for as long as it takes.
Like you, the anger still comes every now and then but I am able to process it and let it go without a reaction.
Do you think his recent apology (which seemed sincere) helped it click for you?
My WAW has never apologized or acknowledged any pain she caused me or our kids and I'm not expecting that to ever happen but I do wonder how I would be affected if she ever showed remorse.

I have a similar goal and it still seems like I am only not my true authentic self w/ one person.
