Is it fear or embarrassment?

No. I am very comfortable with my own company and I have my beloved kiddo. I have pretty much developed a thick hide after all that I have gone through.

Is he a good provider?

I am financially independent and our contribution to the household expenses is about the same. There is a slight slide in the standard of living though.


I suppose I am hanging on because I really thought that if we could work things through, the M could become stronger and better. But I am starting to wonder if I should.

And assuming that I am crazy enough to still want to hang on, what are the things I should be looking out for? Do I look out for small steps and slowly increase my interactions with him? Or there really is no point unless he offers to cut off the OW totally and I should just cut him off totally until then? And offers to continue with the IC beyond what is necessary?


You can call me Dory/ Grl.

As a wise fish once sang,"Just keep swimming!"

It's no use to go back to yesterday because I was a different person then.
