Ronmom,

Just came across your post tonight. Hang tough girl. Ginny has posted some great advice to you. Read her post a couple of times.

I can sympathize with the lonliness and pain you are dealing with right now. It's not easy. My H and I were separated for a year. The first several months were pure hell. I look back and wonder how I did it. But I did, and you will too. Submerge yourself into anything you can that makes you feel better, like reading, socializing, etc. (Ginny has some good ideas).

You will get through this, you are much stronger than you think. You just don't know it yet.

And as Ginny stated, show your strength. Try the best that you can to show H that you have detached from him (even though in your heart you haven't, but he doesn't need to know that). This is were I saw a turning point for me.

You are not alone.

Chelsea
