MamaBear, I am so happy for you!!! This is a very very good sign that H is coming around, making his way back to you. It will be important and great at some point if you can talk about it, because I can see that you still need some reassurance from your H (and you deserve it!). But it seems tonight is for celebrating!!! I am so happy for you.
It has been 13 months for me since I ML with my H. He is in Germany with OW right now and that is always hard. But I am more hopeful than I have ever been. In fact, more than hopeful. I feel in my heart and soul that H will make his way back to me. I don't know how long it will take. But I am sure it can happen. So one day I too will post . You just wait (and pray!) with me Meanwhile, I am rooting for you as always. But tonight, cheering!!! You are hot stuff, mama. I am so happy for you. What's your next thread gonna be titled? "Mama is making it?" You're the best, MamaBear. Enjoy!!!

Grreat news, Mama!I don't want to be the wet blanket here but...watch for a letdown. In my sitch we were intimate a few times recently (first time in 1.5 yrs!) and although in my head I knew not to get too carried away, emotionally I expected that more was forthcoming. Was the turning point finally here! Nope. But that was me not you. Just watch your own emotions and keep in mind that this wonderful experience may be just the first incredible step in a lengthy journey. But, believe me, I'm happy for you. You've been battling long and hard (Oh my God, what did I just say! ) keep smilin.
Girl, high fiving you right now!!!! I am so happy, you can't believe! Did you ever think you would have so many strangers happy for you having sex???!!!
Ok, now that enough time has passed from the initial "YAAAAAA" post, I want to second the idea that you don't go overboard on the meaning of this. Accept it for what it is and DO NOT allow it to build a whole new set of expectations for him to fail to meet. I know this is what I would do and I would hope I could fight the urge.
This could have been ANYTHING to him. It could be the start of true reconciliation, testing the "waters" so to speak, just plain "getting some", or any other reason men have sex with a woman. The main thing to understand is that no matter when, in YOUR situation, you can probably take this as a positive because if he was just interested in meaningless sex, he would have been doing it/you the whole time.
Just don't get your expectations up and don't allow yourself to be sucked into the turmoil that MAY be going through his head.
I will try hard as hell to keep this in mind for after I finally have this breakthrough. Sadly, I will probably fail, lol.
For now Mama, bask in that glow and smile your a$$ off. Make 'em wonder... although if "they" know you at all these days, it's gonna be the worst kept secret in the universe.
Mama, watch out, because Muddle is right. The ML is likely to trigger some emotional mood swings in your H, and you must not be disappointed if you seem to take a step back for every two that you take forward. Be patient.
The LORD is near to all who call on him, to all who call on him in truth." (Psalm 145:18)
Thank you everyone for posting. I agree with all of you. I am not going to let my expectations get the best of me and I realize that ML one time does not fix what went wrong in our M. I do think it is a step in the right direction though cause like GH said; if he just wanted meaningless sex we would have been having it all along. I think two things, now that he and OW are no longer together he was horny and maybe he is tring to see if he can get that loving feeling back for me. Who knows....
On a side note I had a great night last night at work, made oodles of cash and lots of new friends!!
Well, my bubble has burst. Just got cell phone bill and H was talking with OW last Friday for 27 minutes. (Only goes up to 9/15) Today he is late coming home and I just called him since I have to leave for work soon and all he said was he "stopped off". So...I guess they can't stay away from eachother.
I am so hurt...I could just sit here and cry my heart out. Off to work, need to put on my fake happy face. THIS SUCKS
Meanwhile, I am rooting for you as always. But tonight, cheering!!! You are hot stuff, mama. I am so happy for you. What's your next thread gonna be titled? "Mama is making it?" 
You're the best, MamaBear. Enjoy!!!
