That's a great story. Thanks for sharing and congratulations!
It is funny that you should post this story right now. I have been painting my nephew's room and started thinking about the emotional affair that H had before he filed for divorce. The more I painted the angrier I become. Do I really want this jerk in my life.
He tells me that he wants to live his life with me because he knows that he could never trust anyone more than me. Why does he deserve someone he can trust, when he acted like such a creep.
Did your H have begin an affair while you two were still together? How are we suppossed to deal with this. Are we suppossed to just forget about it? Are we teaching them that it is OK to screw around on us? I just painted my nephew's room like a mad women thinking about all the emails that H sent this other women while we were still married. When I start thinking about it, I become furious. I think about it less and less as time goes on, but when I do, it just ticks me off. I would NEVER do something like that, I don't care what anybody says. I thought H was the same. He screwed around just after five years of being married. How do I know he just isn't one of those womanizing creeps that I thought I didn't have.
Are there any books out there that I could read? Everyone, how do you get past this and learn to trust someone who has deceived you like this.
Jo, I think your post came at the right time. You give me hope that I can forgive H and learn to trust again. How do you do it? Is is just going to take time. I guess this is a big lesson in forgiveness.
