Baby steps

[Painter]

I'm surprised by my own calm. I have dear friends praying for me and supporting me. My son is by my side like the rock he has always been in my life. My sweet dog is with me, showering me with affection and attention. I feel lucky, in the middle of everything.

Zues, I think you make a great point when you state that the WS doesn't consider it cheating. H kept repeating, 'I thought we were separated.' I asked him why he then thought he needed to keep it a secret, and lie to me?

I had a chance to have an A - a friend I talked to a lot after I discovered H's A. He is M and I also know his W. I ignored the advances, then cut off contact when it got to be too much. It's a shame, because I liked our friendship.
