ANS-it is kinda easy to say never when you've seen the pain on this board, but in our pain it also makes us vulnerable. Vulnerability is where affairs breed (sometimes). Anyway, I'm sorry your feeling isolated-I know it all too well (sigh). Now if you were in a different place I could hear you saying all kinds of positive things about your W choices. Sounds like she is taking some kind of steps to get some help for herself therefore your R also. I know EXACTLY what you mean about it seems like she can talk to everyone but you. What is that all about????? I've talked to H several times about it. Maybe we're just to close, maybe not "safe enough" to talk to, or they just want someone else's opinion besides ours. Hope things brighten soon for you. I'm off to a therapy session-trying to fit in as many as possible seeing that I'm off work on Medical leave trying to get anxiety under contol-I'm changing the way I react to my feelings, but my feelings have not changed. I have to get them out from under whatever is causing the havok. LOL....Rachael M.
