I agree. One has 2 get past the "guilt hurdle" 2 realize the liberating quality of taking responsibility for one's own choices and the consequences of those choices.

I still love my WxW. I'm still adjusting to not having my children with me everyday. I'm still reeling from the revealations of betrayal. But I have to keep moving.

See, the thing is this; no matter what the eventual outcome, I have to be a better man in order to receive my better good. I can't control anyone else, so I MUST release them. I hope that we can grow enough to give our children the best childhood possible, for only stable happy parents can provide stable happy childhoods.

Friend, It DOES Hurt, but pain can't last. Time and love won't let it.

It seems that you're hovering bxn grief, acceptance, standing firm, and moving on. Your WxW will 'return'-to her senses, her values, her balance. But will she return to YOU? And if she does, will you be there?

You're moving mighty fast in a good direction. Who in your life can keep up?

Good observation, better question. I honestly don't know. My trust is broken and my faith is shaky. I'm healing, but so many doubts still abound.
