Mamabear,

Well, I have to admit to being a little too focused on my own story and responses to it and not spending enough time reading OTHER people's stories. I guess since there is SO much here to read, I just got overwhelmed.
That said, I got around to reading some threads today and Frank_D's "The slow walk home" thread has given me SO much insight as to what the future may hold.
Although it's a painful read, and not at all a pretty picture, Frank does a great job of keeping the thread updated and you can see his daily oscillation between being ok and wanting to end his marriage (and everything in between).

Yea, this sucks for sure and I/we here feel so alone. It almost makes it WORSE, not better that these things are so common that hundreds of people on a message board can have almost the EXACT same thing said/done to them. It makes it worse because if only our spouses could see just how common their feelings were, and how there IS a way to repair that which they feel is beyond repair!
Anyway, hang in there. I can say that because I am in a pretty good place for the moment (and I mean moment cuz it could change any minute now).
If anything, I understand my wife's pain in being in an empty relationship more now than I EVER would have otherwise. Lesson learned.
