This is the husband of Momof3bychoice. Thanks for helping my W work through her difficult time with telling me about the abortion. Also, thank you for all the help and guidance you have given her, and me (through her), with repairing our marriage. This is the first time I have posted here, but I have learned a lot from you all anyway. She gains a lot of strength from this site and I am grateful for it.

Welcome dad. I know from her description that you are a wonderful husband. I'm hoping that as she works the program here, your marriage will be better than ever.

Believer,

Thank you for the welcoming reply. We are both "working the program", and our marriage is better than ever!

Big pat on the back for you dadof3.
I'm so damned impressed with you right now I wish you were MY H. (Only kidding momof3 <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/grin.gif" /> )

I couldn't get my H on this board no matter WHAT I did. He's still not comfortable with ME being here frequently. Somehow he's convinced someone is going to say something and I'll up and leave him for what he's done.

You two have such a committment to making this marriage work. I have every confidence you'll recover better, stronger, people through this experience.

Keep us posted, best of luck to you both !!! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="images/icons/smile.gif" />

betrayed...

your H should be supportive of you coming here to help you get ideas of better ways to save the marriage not leave it. This is marriage building right? Not marriage giving up...right?

It took a while for my W to get me here...give him time...

I hate typing, maybe he does 2? lol

D23,
He hates typing, he hates reading, but he is open to me reading him books and through this sight I've found some GREAT ones.

I take everything I learn from here, right to him, and he's open to hearing it, discussing it, debating it. I was knocked off my chair when he agreed to fill out the EN questionnaire. But we wouldn't be here without MB, I know it, he knows it, you know it, your W knows it, we all know it.

Sometimes I leave posts open knowing he'll read it, or sometimes I print them out, and leave them on the back of the toilet, LOL... whatever works right !

Hello Dad of 3,

Great to see you here. Glad to have the opporutunity to tell you, you have a great wife. I'm so glad things worked out for you.

I'm also impressed with this wonderful man she seems to be married too. I would be jealous as He11 if I didn't have one of my own. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/grin.gif" />

Could you please encourage Mom to start a sex thread. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/grin.gif" /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/grin.gif" /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/grin.gif" /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/grin.gif" />

Weaver and all

This is wifey here...and thanks for loving my hubby and bein' so jealous. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/grin.gif" /> About the dancin part....it was more of an "instruction" if you get my point.

Let me add I was the teacher and he the student <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="images/icons/wink.gif" /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/grin.gif" /> .

But none-the-less, prior to this horror story HE NEVER would open up to me like that...and I loved it. He knows it was a MAJOR deposit.

Dadof3,

Welcome, your reputation precedes you and frankly it is an impressive one. You have done well, and I think because of it Momof3 is doing her best as well.

Don't ever forget, life is a team sport. It seems to me you two have what it takes to be a good team, perhaps not Fred and Ginger, but... <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="images/icons/smile.gif" />

God Bless,

JL
