How do you handle your feelings about the OW ever being involved with your child? The last person I want cozying up to my son is the woman who destroyed his family.

I've told my H that if he pursues this r with the OW, she will NEVER come near my son. I know this is unrealistic, but how do you handle these intense feelings? I told my H that if he did, my S would know just who exactly she was and how she played a part in destroying his life. Is this wrong?

I wouldn't entertain those feelings unless it becomes reality. That may NEVER come to pass, Nid and you will have upset yourself for nothing!

Girl, you have enough problems on your hands right now without manufacturing hypotheticals! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/grin.gif" />

You're right Melody. I am obsessing about something that isn't happening yet. Thanks for putting that into perspective. I need to focus only on the here and now....me and my son.
