Still, I was sad to hear that for years he's been walking around waiting for the shoe to drop. I told him that he just isn't disposable or replaceable to me!

All of this is important info for me in terms of understanding the reasons that lead Wolfie into having an A. Shortly after I found out about his infidelity, Wolfie said a lot of things about how he believed it was "just a matter of time" before I asked him to leave. He had convinced himself that I just didn't love him anymore. The truth was that I was mad at him for emotionally distancing himself from me and acting like an ass--but I was never considering ending the R.





Ah, Tal...more words of wisdom and insight from your thread! It resonates with me..one of the first things h said post-A was "I thought our M was already over. You were so angry all the time." Clear (when I LISTEN) that h, too, was waiting for my departure.

Hard stuff this loving in the face of everything
Worth it, though.
