Thank you girls!

I honestly don't know all the answers. I no longer stand for my M - I got divorced and H married OW but I was here for a long long time. And I'm not saying "don't try", but I do not think ANYONE should tell you things WILL work out. The odds are that they won't. But that doesn't mean you won't be the one! Only you can decide how long you will work at it. The only thing anyone (including me) can promise you is that if you make decisions that are best for you and your family - you will be fine at the end of this.

Please, posters - stop telling each other that they WILL come back. They might get through their MLC (Lord knows, that my Ex hasn't), but no one can say if they will come back.

I know someone whose H did come back. I have not heard from her for a while. I hope it is working. It is nice to know of a success story.

Why does he contact only you? I'm not sure but I'd guess it is because you are approachable. And I don't think there is anything wrong with that. Its the only way to maintain communication and its important if you have kids. My Ex became so nasty that I just had to pull away completely and stop the communication because it wasn't healthy.
