How did you family and friends react when you reconciled? Was it hard for you....
There were no issues because we never told them there were problems.
That is a recommendation I make, to keep it private for as long as you can. I know in my case, if I had told friends and family, it would have made R impossible as my W wouldn't have wanted to face all of them ever again. Telling people about your sitch can be a detriment to ever Ring.
Obviously, in some sitches that is impossible. When the WAS leaves or files for D or does something that cannot be hidden (moves out, etc). But my advice to LBSs is to keep it private for as long as possible to prevent the WAW from having another hurdle to Ring.
Good advice Steve. I did my best for almost 3 months, however all my friends kept asking me where WW was, as she had changed her FB pics and relationship status. My family also are close to me, after a while they knew something was wrong. I broke down in tears at the time. It was humiliating, as i was living on my own in the apartment, trying to keep everything together. WW was gone and not talking to me anymore.
That right there tells me she doesn't deserve you!! Manta, you got this. You are awesome!
Go listen to the song This Is Me from The Greatest Showman soundtrack.
