It doesn't feel like a fairytale anymore...

[LiveNow]

You know, I do believe that we were meant to find them. They were there to show us reality, so we're not in denial about it. It was about the worst moment of my entire life, but I needed to see those pictures. I was no longer in the dark, and I was grateful for that. (And, I have said this a number of times - the moment I confronted him with the photos was my 1 moment of pure joy in the past year and a half. Really. The look on his face was priceless. He had absolutely no idea they were out there, that was obvious.)

Your H and OW have almost exactly the same number of years between them as my H and OW. I don't get it either. And H and I had had a number of conversations in the past about how we could never (!) be with someone who wasn't close to our own ages because we wouldn't have as much in common. Hm. So much for that! Head up fthnluv. You're doing great. You and I will rise above this -- with plenty of grace and dignity intact.

And about your H's FB page? Leave it be. Let the world see. This is his life, his reputation, etc. Let it be what it is. Let him deal with whatever the consequences are. What he puts on there is not a reflection on you -- remember that. And if there is one thing I've learned this year it's that no one is perfect. Don't even try because it's fruitless. This was a tough lesson for me to learn, but showing more of my 'less-than-perfect' self to others has, without a doubt, brought me closer to those around me. And there is FREEDOM in knowing we can't be perfect! Hooray for us in all our imperfection!
