I'll do it on one condition....I get to smack your h a few times too! Oh what fun!
So glad that you are feeling better. If I did something to help you on your way, then that makes me even happier!
I blamed myself in the beginning too. I took everything on my shoulders. When I got past the panic mode and started to think about it, I realized how self-centered that really was. I mean, did I truly think that I had the power to initiate my h's crisis? Wasn't he his own person with his own thoughts and feelings? He did have a life before me? Sure, it was a short 17 years but a lot can happen during that time.
All that considered, I felt relieved not being responsible for his actions but at the same time it makes me thankful that this happened. It caused me to really look at myself and start to make some changes in ME....things that I always wanted to work on to make ME a whole person outside my M.
I still have a long way to go and I still catch myself being co-dependent. But I am determined to make my 40's a hell of a lot better than my 30's!

That says it all for many people on this bb. It really tells you what kind of person this is...parasitic B#tch!
Stay strong Deb!
Thanks for the tip on steaming! I WILL use it if I want to! LOL (I have always opened all mail no matter who's name is on it....never even thought that I was stepping on toes here...will have to think about that one.)
I really do like your GAL plans, especially about the bikes and your s. It will keep you off the rural roads! I am glad that you see the importance of being an individual in your marriage and how GAl can help you do that. Have fun with it!
Dawn (Happy to hear that you are feeling better physically too....always helps!)
