Read an article the other day, an anonymous entry on MSN news from a man who cheated on his wife. As I read it, I came to realize that some cheaters just don’t fucking get it, they don’t get honesty, they don’t get commitment, they don’t get selflessness. Throughout his article (poised as a helpful missive) he … More Some just don’t fucking get it!
Just read a great post from The Aftermath on how she is managing her triggers. I have had my share of battling. In the first six months after D-day, they were hiding behind every corner waiting to get me. At first I was completely and utterly unarmed. They won each and every battle. After six … More Triggers – the ultimate battle
Watching the news, and all the reports of cheating has been difficult. Before DD it was always “other women” that had to deal with the repercussions of affairs, I felt for them but I was so much removed from it I never really “got it”. The torture that ensues was completely off my radar. I … More Rampant Cheating In Society
I have not written for sometime, and I have been feeling a need to update my story for those of you who have been finding my pages. I recall only too well, the hours and days after D-day that I constantly, compulsively combed the web looking for others, looking for hope, advice….anything. I have been … More Have Hope
Can I just start by saying FLASHBACKS SUCK! Have recently read another excellent post by Saving Shards and gosh…I know I have said it before but as much as we are all different….we are the same. I have had many flashbacks in the last few weeks. I guess the complete and utter despair of my father’s illness … More Flash Backs and Justice
Catching where I left off on my first post, H and I separated and continued to try therapy. Had I known I would be spending thousands of dollars, hours of crying, and so much circle talking with someone who was cheating I would never have done it. Funny thing about labouring under a misconception….it just … More My story continued……
I have not written for some time. My father died in April and I am reeling. Reeling from the months of watching him suffer and try to avoid the inevitable end. He was full of life and not wanting or ready to go in any way. I cared for him in every way, I’m reeling … More Soon it will be a year
In therapy we have had to discuss our sex life, hard task. I have always maintained that I am not a prude, always enjoyed sex and have had a wonderful and active past. My H maintains that one of his reasons for cheating is that our sex life had come to a halt. Wait a … More Sustained passion in Marriage -who is responsible and now what?
I often look at my H and feel he is a very familiar stranger. I guess the fact that I thought I knew him so well prior to his cheating was more fairytale I had made up for myself than fact. There was a mix of innocence and ignorance in my thinking. There is so … More Familiar Stranger -Forever?
I have been wondering much about love, not just recently but since April 2013 when my H suddenly and shockingly announced he was unsure he wanted to be married. Up until that time, I thought honestly I knew love, could tell if I was loved, could bank my future on love. Once the bond of … More What is Love Anyways
