You brought a BIG smile to my face CM and almost a tear. Trying to cut down on that part though. Thank you for that.
I am not trying to sound less sure of what I want for you, i.e. your marriage to remain intact, but I am so glad you seem to have figured out that the light you needed to see was not that OM was wrong, or that H was somehow better than you think, but that YOU are better than you think and worthy of more than chasing a fantasy. You have shown the ability to stand strong first for yourself, and now for your family. I constantly applaud you for your efforts both in your real life, and now in helping others here. If for some reason your marriage doesn't work out, and I pray it does, I think you will have learned SO much from this experience, as do we all.
I know you are feeling weak right now, but the bottom line is that you are still on the right path, or at least you didn't take the turn into the "bad" neighborhood, lol.
Thanks again for the kind words and keep your chin up. We all have our moments.
