Hi MB friends.
Someone sent this poem to us after our son was killed in a car accident.

I hope it's words of understanding, help a struggling and hurting person here on this site.
Love, Sarah

With nothing more to fear
The sun continues shining
With undiminished cheer

And birds continue singing
And skies continue clear
As hearts continue bearing
The things they cannot bear."

I have reported this post. I believe that this sarie is not here for help. I agree with many others that she is a troll.

Godspeed.

Sarie:

That was a sweet poem. Here's something more appropriate, though:

"Romeo Loves Jane" - Tonio K

"i've heard of unfaithful lovers but this is outrageous
soon the national enquirer will run the front pages
i saw shakespeare and cheetah
crying in their margaritas

bad news

romeo loves jane
the jungle will never be the same
and juliet's crying again
romeo loves jane

now in a wold full of hurt how can anybody blame them
and in the heat of wild love how can anybody tame them
they have fallen east of eden now

good love gone bad
bad love gone wild
wild love gone mad
mad love out of control"

get help, Sarie.

Sarie,
If you do indeed comprehend that infidelity is as nearly painful as a death in the family, as your offering of this poem seems to indicate, then why do you voluntarily continue putting your H in the position of receiving pain?

He will find out.

Or, is the poem just another example of how "nice" you are?

Thank you Lisa, for starting this thread for me.
I have been gone all day helping my Mom.

And thanks to all that replied.

I was ok with the 'arh' moderater for stopping the thread as it was going nowhere.

I did lie about telling my husband about the affair. (Confessed here later though, and I wouldn't have had to.)
I made up a story.
I wanted everyone here to think I took their good advice and told my H and that he forgave me.

Instead, just yesterday, I met OM at the river and we had a nice visit together, made a wonderful memory.

So see I am still involved with him.I don't belong on this site yet I am learning and SOMEDAY I AM GOING TO DO THE RIGHT THING AND STOP THIS AFFAIR!

But for now, I just CAN'T (WON'T) let him go (or him me), even though we are suppose to be committed to others.

That is why it is best if I do not write here on this MB anymore until I have the courage and the morals to end this affair and at this time, I don't want to.
I cannot imagine my life without OM in it and to think of no contact is beyond my comprehention.
Plus I can't imagine my life without my H in it.
I think I am pretty messed up in my mind with my thinking!

So I can see why you would all HATE me for being so weak and for continuing seeing OM, if only occassionally.

I know, I know, What a fool I am.
I have three wonderful daughters, 8 grandchildren, a husband that adores me (because he doesn't know) yet I am leading this secret life.
It is almost unbelievable to even me.
I was a pristine lady before meeting OM.
A virgin when I married; a good girl always until him!

I think of it like this.
When I am with OM I am myself only.
I am not a wife, a mother, a daughter but just me. The person before I was married.

So I selfishly continue and put the affair in a secret compartment in my mind.
And days turn into weeks, then months, now many many years!

Sincerely, Sarah
