I get comments from everyone that I look better, that I am improving mentally and emotionally. My dad had a lot of criticism on me at BD, but now he is proud of where I am heading. I hope to continue my journey for improvement.

Please do not get me wrong, I am not actively trying to save the marriage, but I think it is worth keeping some hope. Please guide me if I am wrong. I am a slow learner, but I learn.

Thank you.

TMS, if the last paragraph is true, then who cares if she knows? It's her loss. Go out and live your best life like you're doing. If she somehow knows that (and trust me, she probably knows more than you think), and gets curious, great. If not, great too since the new TMS is out crushing life without her!

DBing is about saving yourself. Sometimes the marriage comes along for the ride. Sometimes it doesn't. Either way you'll be just fine. Even better than fine, you'll be awesome.
