Thank you all so much for your encouraging words. I do have supportive family coming with me. I'm really good at "pretending" things are ok and like nothing is happening, which isn't a good quality. At least I don't think it is anymore cause that's the face I showed my girls for six years. I did have a talk with all three of them separately and told them the effects it might have on their future relationships because of their parents. I tried to explain when it doesn't feel right it's not right and don't do what I do. do what I say LOL Hopefully I got through to them a little.
DeJaVu, you're right about being heartbroken about the future. I know now that's what I was mourning, I had a certain picture in my head and I was stuck on that instead of what was reality and just moving forward. I found this new Podcast called Committed. I like it because it talks about married couples going through troubles and persevering. Not really because of marital problems but because of outside issues that made them stronger as a couple. I listen and remind myself that things could be worse and I need to put my big girl panties on and GAL!
