This was at the tail end of "Why can't I get out of this fog" and I didnt' want it to get missed..
Hi, Please excuse the intrusion. I am new to MB's and I feel like I am reading my own life story on this thread. The advice that has been given to Jetgirl is awesome. My A lasted 6 yrs. H and DS13 and DS11 know of it. It's been rough. What I am having trouble with is the guilt of hurting the OM, breaking promises. OM said I was his life, he divorced his wife and waited 3 more years for me, I could not leave my family. I have become a liar, a cheater and a deceiver. I realize my promises to my family come first. I have no obligation to promises made in sin, yet both OM and I convinced each other we would be together....any thoughts? Thanks

Sad,
<img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/grin.gif" /> When you came here I told you...that you would be an asset here. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="images/icons/smile.gif" /> You are getting the hang of this stuff, keep up the good work.

Sadfww,
Always remember that this board is for BOTH BS and WS who are sincere in saving and rebuilding their marriages.
I also have the highest respect and admiration for FWS like yourself, who have shown the courage to do the right thing and help the new folks that just got here and are right now going through the same experiences that you went through in the past.
We are very lucky to have you and the others here to help us gain compassion and understanding. All of you are a Godsend. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="images/icons/smile.gif" />

TMCM and JL- thank you for your kind words....they mean a lot and are much appreciated.
I have learned so much since coming here thanks to you and the other experienced builders here, and I am eager to learn - and to grow- more. My marriage has finally become my number one priority (better late then never- right <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/grin.gif" /> ) and the information and compassion I have found here is invaluable.
