Journaling:

I don't know if it was the rejection that is causing this, or if it's the way things should be when it comes to dealing with a STBX that is still involved with OM2, but I am reeling in pain right now. The flashbacks, the situation as is, maybe my loneliness are all contributing towards feels of sadness. I am not feeling hopeless as I know I can, will, and need to come out of this. But I'd be lying if I said that I was not feeling any PTSD.

I'm still trying to wrap my mind as to how and why WW decided to take it this far. I'm still trying to comprehend whether the R she has with OM2 is an affair gone into R status or whether it is not an affair because we were on a trial separation for three weeks before she met OM2. Virtually no one outside of this board sees this as an affair. STBX is fully entrenched with OM2 friends and family. She is a part of their lives. I have no idea if they have embraced her as one of their own but from the sounds of things they have. She is a part of OM2's friends and their kids lives. This whole thing doesn't seem like an affair. This is a love story where everything is going right for her.

That is the part that is hurting me right now.
