There's a number of you that I am hoping to keep up with. I thought this might be a way to do it? Also to ask questions/thoughts that we might not want to devote a separate thread to?

Feel free to ignore me if I'm being pesty.

Jetgirl, Wakingup, Mell...thinking of you guys in particular.

Hi Sadfww--

I don't know if there's much to update you on...

Um, I get to sleep in my own bed tonight...no don't get excited for me...my H is staying at his sister's tonight. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Frown]" src="images/icons/frown.gif" /> What I wouldn't give to snuggle up to him once again!!!

Last time I spoke to him, I asked him if he was making progress and he said, "Some. I have good days and bad days."

I have written him another letter, expressing my realizations and thoughts during this time alone. Had my sister to read for anything that he might take the wrong way too...so hopefully it'll be met with an open heart.

I emailed him today to ask him when he'd be home on Sat and he'd talk to me when he got home...haven't heard from him yet.

What about you? I read so many stories that I get confused as to which story belongs to whom!!! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="images/icons/smile.gif" /> What's new with you?

BTW--I think it was a marvelous idea to have a place for us FWW and WW to post.

Happy Friday-
rae

WU- I posted to you on your thread about deciding to end contact. Rae, Mell or anyone else jump in here with your own experiences.

What's new with me? I'm in the middle of plotting an affair with my H. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/grin.gif" />

This is actually at the advice of a number of posters here....the intimacy and passion we once had is sadly lacking in our marriage at this point. So...I'm making plans for tonight. My challenge is that my H has been working weekend nights at his cousin's bar so that he gets some time out of the house and can refind his sanity after caring for our 3 rugrats all week. The 3 rugrats are the other challenge.

Justahusband suggested that I set my alarm for a bit before he gets home, light candles, and leave a note for him...I'm planning to do it tonight if I'm not too exhausted!

WU--

My advice, WU, is to END contact!!! The sooner the better. Have you read Surviving an Affair? In it, it states that every affair ends in a natural death.

I don't remember reading about you...can you post a link to your story or a summary of what your situation is? I'd like to help you, but could be more effective if I knew what's going on in your life.

We are here for you!!!

Rae

Hi girls, what a lousy club to be a member of Huh? <img border="0" title="" alt="[Frown]" src="images/icons/frown.gif" />

WU, I have not heard your story either. I will be supportive of your emotions, but absolutely encourage NC!!!!!

It is an addiction, it is bad for you, just like any other addictive behavior, except chocolate. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="images/icons/smile.gif" /> I'm sure that one doesn't count.

Be strong girls. Build a support group around you, with people who will hold you accountable.

KY, my friends call me Jelly. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/grin.gif" />

Here's WU's thread- I believe most of her story is on it:

Oh, WU...I am praying for you. Thank God for putting a wedge between you and OM. I pray that you find the courage to close the door, deadbolt it, throw the key away and, in a Poe-esque fashion, take a trowel, a bunch of bricks, and a large amount of cement and build an everlasting wall between you and OM. It seems that you're doing in brick by brick...hey whatever it takes.

Where are you in your relationship with OM? What is the very latest?

SFWW-

Oh, good for you! Sounds like a wonderful time! I'm so envious! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="images/icons/smile.gif" /> The best I've got to look forward to tonight is to snuggle up to my husband's pillow. Maybe if I sqeeze it hard enough POOF! he'll appear? Poop.

I'm at home right now...it feels so good, but so stinkin' empty. My kitty cat, I think, is mad at me. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Frown]" src="images/icons/frown.gif" /> He thinks I abandon him.

Good luck with your rendevous...sounds like a great plan!
