SP thank you so much for your advice. I have re-read your posts several times, they are so helpful to me.

You are so right, I do need to break the habit of thinking about H and OW constantly. I am feeling sorry for myself - my life is so miserable while he is living it up with the love of his life. And for all I know it may not be a bed of roses.

Also, I would much rather be me than him. To be there for my kids every day and to know I would have done anything to save my M is important to me.

I am stressed at the moment which is not helping maintain a PMA. The house is being valued this week, my L is still working on splitting the finances and I really don't know how it is going to end up. Maybe once everything is settled I will feel calmer.

As for GAL - my friends came over on Friday - we had a lovely meal and a few drinks. On Saturday I caught up with housework and ironing. Exciting stuff!

My kids are older now and have their own lives which is the way it should be, so I do get lonely sometimes. During the week I am at work every day, and at night I go out running. I always try to plan stuff at the weekends but it's difficult when most of my friends are married with young families.

Thanks again SP, you have given me a lot to think about.
