Pyrite: I get what you are saying, and after 7 months, I can imagine those feelings. I can still feel guilt now. How much longer should I have stayed/worked for the marriage? Should I have continued to be a husband? Should I have stayed married? All those things make me feel guilt at times. Then I have to breath, relax and continue the thoughts that I tried, I tried hard. I have, and I am sure you will get there one day, earned the reason to pursue another woman. I too, still have love and compassion for the woman I married over 25 years ago. I too, reached that place many months ago now, that I forgive her. I don't have any anger towards her. The OW, that's a different story. I simply don't even think about her. You must be down on the Goldie, I would say.
