Chris,

How do you stay so positive after your WW didn't see the warts so to speak and never came out of the fog? I am just wondering how you stay with us and help us through these things when things didn't go that way for you? Did you have MB during your WW A? And how are your kids doing? Thanks for all.

I found out Christmas night about two previous affairs.
I found out the next night about her current affair.
I went to the bookstore and got "Surviving An Affair" on 27 Dec. I first posted on 28 Dec 1998 (yeah, last century <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/grin.gif" /> )
She left 5 weeks later.
I never really had a chance to do much in the way of MB with her. But as most people do, I did start a kind of Plan A about a month before I found out and before I knew what Plan A was.

I am just wondering how you stay with us
I'm bored? <img border="0" title="" alt="[Razz]" src="images/icons/tongue.gif" />
I guess if I can help someone NOT go through even a tiny bit of this crap, then?

Kids are doing fine. 2 girls, 18 & 13. Ex left right after 8th b-day and the oter was 13. She has only seen them 3 times since then. She calls every 6 months to a year or so, sends money on Christmas and b-days. That's it.

Chris,

You are a great man to stay and help the rest of us. I am glad you took such great care of those girls, that couldn't have been easy on your own. That is something to be proud of right there. Raising kids and raising them right on your own is hard. Well thanks for sticking with us and helping us out.

HINY
