It's true, Mama. We all deserve a hell of a lot more than we're getting for sticking around these undeserving wretches! I think the A thing makes it so tough. We're supposed to sit around smiling like idiots and wait for our S's to get the OP out of their friggin heads. Along the way we GAL and hopefully that makes us feel better (and it does!). But how long do we wait? 3 months, 1 year, 2 years? I've been plugging along for over 3 years now. If I didn't have kids I'd have probably packed up and bailed a long time ago and would have been rightly applauded by friends and family for doing so. My W's PA has been going on, to my knowledge, for about 8 months now and the EA had been years as far as I'm concerned. So I too get pretty damn impatient and quite often think I've had enough of her sh*t, even when good stuff seems to be happening. Problem is I still love my W and am willing to go to the ends of the earth to keep her and our family together. Whether or not she deserves that kind of loyalty is another question. But I know in my heart that I can't quit until I know there is absolutely nothing more I can do. I think that describes you too, Mama. So vent here and then just keep on fighting the good fight alongside the rest of us crazies!
