Jenny- thanks for the welcome! As my friend MF wrote, you pretty much summed up "the whole enchilada" as far as solid DB advice.

Open question As I read through this thread, I too identified with the mixed feelings of relief, joy, anger and resentment over having been the "wronged" spouse. I have been carefully examining my contribution to the deterioration of the marriage which eventually led to W's EA/PA so I am not holding myself completely harmless.

Now here's the question, what books have been recommended to those who are in the recovery stage? Also, how are you dealing with what you are calling "post traumatic snydrome" behaviors, feelings or experiences?

I have read and continue to read books to cultivate the fire such as "Light Her Fire," and "The Five Love Languages." I think I have "After the affair" and have read bits and pieces but I misplaced it. Looking forward to learning and growing some more and sharing what I've learned if it can be of help, especially coming from a male perspective. C2H
