Letting go Qs

[Kramer]

I appreciate your words, Heavy. I know my sitch is not unique, but my personal experience is. And I'm not going to let her off easy by calling her a WAW. She is a wayward wife, which is much worse. I realize that she is in this deep. That, combined with her refusal to ever back down or admit guilt, is a definite nail in the coffin for our relationship.

The sad thing is that I know what to do and I know that it takes patience, insight, personal growth, and dedication. I counsel people every day on their problems and put in a happy face to everybody, but I'm just dying inside. I never saw this coming, and feel so betrayed by the person that I trusted most in my life. One of my big fears is going through all this pain, and realizing that I don't want a relationship with her.

As far as GAL activity, I am headed to Newport Beach tomorrow. We always spend easter week there, and I had this paid for 6 months ago. My niece and her friends will come with me, and my sister and her family will meet us on Easter Sunday. Ironically, she is a clinical psychologist in Calabasas. One of my daughters will also fly in with her family midweek. We will have a good time, although it will be bittersweet because it was always a favorite memory for my wife and I.
