Picking Up the Pieces After WAW Goes Again

[smilie]

Trust me when I say that we have all been there. It literally feels like the end of the world, like life is over. Like you will never smile again or experience happiness.

I know you all have and that's why I appreciate everybody's comments here. More that that I value your support. It blows me away how nobody knows me and yet here you all are helping me through - thank you.

This is the worst of it, my friend. And you will survive it. And you will not only survive it, you will begin to thrive.

I long for that day to come.

And as crazy as it sounds, one day in the future, you will look back and be thankful it happened. Why? Because your W is a cheater and has issues that have nothing to do with you.

Yeah, that bit still hasn't sunk in, but the pieces are starting to come together a bit more together with the shear depth of the lies and deceit over the years.

Yes, you contributed to the end of your marriage. But your W displayed issues before you even started dating her. This is a pattern she will continue until she admits she has issues and then decides to do something about it, which is very unlikely.

I didn't act. I let this illness get the better of me and waited for my wife to get onboard with starting some incomes streams, as she said she wanted to. I waited... she didn't want to and chose to communicate that and keep telling me that she wanted to. I should have just done it - I saw that as clear as day in an instant, the day she left.

Feel your pain and honor it. I promise you will smile again one day.
