I'm relatively new here (been posting only a month or so) and am curious...without reading everyone's signatures...

What is your current status with your significant other (BS, WS, XS, STBX, FWS, FBS, in recovery, in Plan A or B, blahblahblah)??

Please vote, and any comments would be welcome.

Multiple selections are possible, of course, since some of us are more than one <img border="0" title="" alt="[Roll Eyes]" src="images/icons/rolleyes.gif" />

I ask because some boards I see alot of very negative, hateful posts on other message boards that deal primarily with marriages in crisis/infidelity - but MB seems to have more of a mix and the general tone more positive and supportive and focused on Rebuilding....which is why I LOVE it here! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="images/icons/smile.gif" />

I voted "other".

I am a BS. I am in plan A.

But my husband isn't with his affair partner. He's still in an affair as he is dating other people. Well, actually he's NOT dating (lack of opportunity), but he will not commit to not dating. So he's sort of in an affair.

Durnit!

I forgot the "I am BS, FWS in NC w/ OP" option.

Too late now <img border="0" title="" alt="[Mad]" src="images/icons/mad.gif" />

That's ironic, too, since that's the category my BS/WW is in.

Oh well, keep 'em comin'!

Me, I'm a BS. H is currently seeking divorce. I have no idea where I stand, but I'm pretty much sick of the whole thing.

I went with I am FBS, in recovery, doing nicely.

It was as close to I am a FBS, in recovery, doing fair-to-middlin' I figure.

I guess more good days than bad could constitute "doing nicely." <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="images/icons/smile.gif" />

Never married twice engaged both longterm living together relationships.

FBS of my DD's dad - now friends and coparents

FOW to my ex fiance

FBS to my ex fiance trying to start over

Man that sounds pathetic.

I am relationship challenged trying to learn how to some day actually make it to the alter (and beyond).

I am a BS, my WH is no longer in an A but he's not home, YET! Although, that's not entirely true, he is upstairs sleeping right now. He is sick as a dog and came home yesterday to have me take care of him.

I voted that I am a FBS in recovery, but not doing well because FWH and I are (as he says) "temporarily" separated. There are a lot of optimistic signs, but we are still separated.
