Hi All ,
This may be for the best, but I filed today. Got some information over the weekend that my WW has been spending weekends in the same hotel room (a special one) with the OM. This is the room we had for our one night honeymoon and our one year anniversary.<p>I asked her and she completely broke off all contact with me. I have to believe it's true by her reaction. I was not mean when I asked her.<p>That emptied my LB. Tomorrow will be 7 months since she left me. <p>Thanks and God Bless everyone that has replied to me since I've been here. I wasn't very good at applying MB techniques but I will be much better when I meet someone else, God willing. And I will apply those techniques from the beginning.<p>For me this was the last straw. I admire all of you that have so much more strength than I.<p>Thank You
I really feel a sense of relief in a way. [img]images/icons/smile.gif" border="0[/img]

So very sorry to hear this, Mike. Some things just seem to push us over the edge, and we all have different threshholds. You did the best you can so please don't be hard on yourself. <p>I'm glad you feel some relief. Please continue to post when you need us.<p>God Bless,
Jo

Thank You everyone [img]images/icons/smile.gif" border="0[/img] <p>I really dread doing this, but feel I must to move on.<p>I called WW's sister so she could relay the message regarding me filing for the D. WW was there! I heard her voice for the first time in almost half a year. She sounded very different to me when we spoke. Maybe it was because it's been so long, who knows. She sounded sad and indifferent, no emotion whatsoever.
I didn't bring up the A or anything from the past, just told her I filed. She gave me a few pointers on how the process works and then we said goodbye , no real emotion at all from her. I was able to keep my cool but it was tough. I just wanted to ask her how she could do this to me. I didn't. I wish I had remembered to ask about the kids, feel bad about that.<p>As for all of you that I've conversed with here, and those I haven't yet, I'll still be around. You guys can't get rid of me that easily<p> [img]images/icons/grin.gif" border="0[/img]

Dear Mike,<p>I am so sorry that it has come to this point for you. You do not deserve this. I pray that this experience does not sour you on relationships in general. You are a good person, and there is a good woman out there for you.<p>This is sad.<p>Estes

Mike, <p>I am sorry your W is putting you and the family through this. I am also glad you are willing to stick around for a while. <p>The support on the divorce board here is good. You will find support and good information there. <p>You have a postive outlook on life. Don't lose that ability. You will do good. <p>Take care, [img]images/icons/smile.gif" border="0[/img]

Good luck & all the best, mate<p>Reading from your story I do have to say: what a cheap cheat your soon-to-be-divorced-WS! You gave it your best shot, Mike, so don't be sad & move on.

Mike,<p>I really sorry you had to go that route. I just spoke to a lawyer last Tuesday. I'm not sure where this is going to go when all is said and done. <p>I hope I have the courage and resolve you have when it's my turn. I feel in my heart that you have chosen the right path. I hope it leads you to where you should be.<p>Best Regards,
N61
