Well, I haven't really checked out this forum before, which is kinda funny since my H has said pretty much since the start that a big part of him leaving has to do with wanting to see other people (although insisting that it hasn't happened yet). I guess I didn't consider it a bona fide case of infidelity - but, the signs are all there.

Anyway, I just wanted to say that I read through your thread and you've certainly been through more than most. You obviously have great inner strength to deal with everything you have and still be so positive and loving. You are amazing! You certainly seem to be doing the right things and I am so hopeful that things will improve for you.

Something that really caught my attention about your sitch is that it really does seem to be a sress-induced MLC. I am so sure that many of our WASs are actually going through a sort of nervous breakdown. We had huge pressure on all fronts as well, and I feel like my H just kinda "snapped". That's how his family views it too and luckily they've been very supportive of me. But my point is, that it would be very interesting to look at the various WASs and try to understand what coping skills they seem to be missing - I think that may be a very important common thread.

Keep up the great work - it seems like you have some wise DBers over here supporting you.

Cheers,
Gibeon
