BD for Thornton was 5.14 and his W turned back towards the R within a few months. They are still together....
Hey Everyone,
It's been a while since I've posted on the boards but I do occasionally check in and read up on some of your posts.
Everything has been going great! W and I are doing very well, communicating, and making plans for our future. I am still participating in counseling which have proved to be extremely helpful. I have learned so much about myself and human psychology in general.
Some of you may remember me from last Summer, that's when my nightmare began. I can relate to all of you newcomers. I can still very vividly remember the feeling of utter panic I had. My entire life felt like it was over. Every single second of every single day was spent obsessing about my WAW.
The point of this message is to offer a little encouragement to those of you suffering. Things really can change. But they do take plenty of time to change.
All of the advice that I was given here on the board was the exact opposite of what I what my mind was telling me to do. I stuck with the program and listened to the veterans here.
Whenever I felt like I was going to lose it and do something detrimental, I would post here FIRST. There were many times I was talked out of a "great idea" by Mach or Wonka and countless others. I am so happy I listened and trusted in the process.
I admire all of you and your commitment to your relationships. There's not many people like us in the world anymore. Continue to fight the good fight and work on yourselves. You can't see it now (or even imagine), but you will find happiness again, with or without your WAS.
Baby steps..
