AV8R, I rarely venture into threads outside of Surviving the D or Just for Fun, but today I did and found you. I never thought I'd be the one trying to tell others the things I least wanted to hear. Truth be told, it does get better. I know I hated being told that in the beginning but my D was 1 year ago last week. And I'm happier than I've been in years. I still have lonely moments, but I have rediscovered who I am and what I enjoy doing.
I have three daughters, 14, 13, and 3. My ex and I have finally reached a point that we can be cordial with one another and the idea of him with other women is only mildly irritating, but not at all unbearable. I know in the beginning I cried several times a day, but now I cannot remember the last time he made me cry.
You are a strong man and you will do very well. have faith.. you are in the right place. The DBing may not have saved my marriage, but it saved me and made me a better person because I know I did everything possible to save it.
Cheer up and welcome to the world of Surviving the D. Rhonda my thread is in Surviving under "who'd have thought I'd ever be happier" or something along that line. I don't post so much anymore, so I've forgotten how to insert a link Chin up, chest out, you will be happy again
People are like stained glass windows, they sparkle and shine when the sun is out, but when the darkness sets in, their true beauty is revealed only if there is light within.
