Thats a good start, RMU. I would open your life up to your H so he knows where you are at all times. Give him your cell phone password, voicemail, etc. And just be prepared to tough out withdrawal. Come here and talk to us instead of picking up the phone and calling the OM. Or pick up the phone and call your H instead, just make sure you have a plan in place.
You made the right decision, RMU. You can be happy in this marriage with a little work, but you can also regain your SELF RESPECT in the process.
Good job. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="images/icons/smile.gif" />

RMU...Glad to hear you have started this ride.
My WW appears to be in day four of withdrawal. It's rough on her and rough on me. Hopefully, the fog will lift and we can start rebuilding soon.....
The advice you've gotten so far is something I wish my WW would do. That is:
open up to me tell me where she's at (regain trust) tell me what she's feeling (even if it hurts me) let me know she wants to work on our marriage
That would help me. The other advice about coming here or calling your husband instead of calling OM is something I would like to restate (from ML). If I were on the receiving end of that phone call, I would be elated. I think you'll find your husband would much rather here from you than suspect/find out you didn't really NC OM.
Good Luck and God Bless.....LS
