Live in WAW VIII

[merrick]

Eddy-

The one thing I can say about my M woes is that I've seen more baseball and hockey games in the past year than I did the first 13 years of M combined!

Hi Merrick,

I can understand your feeling when your W said that she does not want to give up her "friendship". Basically she is selfish and wants both of you. She forgot about her marital vow. It is unbelieveable how they can twist the facts to minimise their guilt.

Keep you faith and do whatever that can make you happy. We have to live our life without our WAW. Look after your kids. You are a great dad.

To my friends on the BB, one of the things I try to do every now and then is check in on Newcomers and lend some words of advice and support for folks just entering our world.

There's one guy with a WAW that has received no feedback--but seems to have his head on straight for what he is now confronting. If you have chance, could you go over a lend a few words of support. You don't have to linger and become a pen pal--just let him know he has a community that's behind him. The link is below. Thanks.

Hi Merrick:

I hope you have been well. Sorry for going dark on you and the rest of the BB, I needed some time away.

I hope your experiment in Seattling as you were calling it didn't do more damage. At least you tried it and now you know that it didn't work.

Your W and your sitch are certainly unique. I'm glad you have Eddy to swap notes with.

Take care of yourself and be happy. You deserve it all.

Merrick,

I want to wish you a special Happy Father's Day.

I hope your day is going well.

I second the motion! Happy Father's Day to you and all the men who lurk here on your thread. I already spoke to Triple J this morning, but he's included here!

Merrick,

Hope you enjoyed your Fathersday. We have a different date for Fathersday downunder here in Australia.

How are you doing? I am just been back from one week business trip. I feel refreshed and more relaxed without worrying about my M for a week. Back to the routine again today.

Hey Folks-

Thanks for checkin' in and the well wishes. I've been trying to stay off the BB and clear my head, but wanted to check on our NY get together. Relations between W and me are sub-Arctic--but I'm not interested in an R with her right nowand am just trying my best not to dislike her.

I pretty much told W I'm not going anywhere. If she wants to file, that's her business, but to succeed she would have to paint me as a bastard and I would need to defend myself. I try my best to avoid her at home -- and stay away from home once the kids are asleep.

I'm just focussing on the kids and building an R with Christ through my RCIA--which is the most significant thing keeping my heart warm and forgiving. I truly believe that id this M survies, it will only come through divine intervention that enters and guides both of our hearts. My heart and mind is open.

Be good everyone and please accept my apologies if I have not stopped by your thread.

Hi Merrick,

I understand your feeling. I have been there myself.

All the best in your faith journey with RCIA. May God bless you with peace and wisdom.
