Every time I come hear its the same old, same,old and little if no healing going on,just dwelling & sometimes for years later.


I'm sorry that's all you see here or choose to read.

I see some real miracles take place, unmatched kindness and compassion, some sound advice and suggestions, and sometimes just a willing shoulder and a warm hug.

I see women and men that come in here devestated and broken, wondering how they can possibly make it through another day...........and, eventually, wean themselves away standing tall, feeling proud of themselves, knowing they have a future with or without their spouse.

This is due to the strong supportive MB members that continue to help those still struggling. Those that realize there is not a one-size-fits-all solution for any of us. That we are all dealing with the same basic problem but with different spouses, various circumstances, a variety of OP's and the added dilemma of the OC. There is no perfect timetable for recovery and yes, it usually does take "years".

Sometimes you only see what you are looking for!

Just being the devil's advocate here, but could it be that, just perhaps, what they have done leaves little room for improvement?
Anyone can improve if they truly put thier mind to it, Anyone!

The first year(give or take)in this forum was helpful. But true healing etc. improved when I gave the situation to GOD, and prayed for his love and guidence.
That and going to othersites...

Ya know <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" />perhaps I've reached the point where I no longer need this forum and it's time to move on, and maybe try other forums on MB.

Good Luck Ladies <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> I'll check back once in a while.

Angels, maybe you would be better off at another site. I remember you. You are always so quick to jump and defend ow and then slam the wives on here. The simple fact that you would even think that CLO offers anything other then antagonism to this site is rather telling.

What was the old saying again????

<-----------TOW is that way.

As for people healing here. I have seen many come through the fire of the affair and the degradation of the other child in their lives. I have seen them learn and grow and move on to be happy again.

Who are you saying hasn't healed??? Do you say that to CLO? Or, are you going after a BW, again?

Angel - I'm sorry that you feel the need to go. This site has been very helpful for me.

I have noticed some of CLO posts, and they do seem to be a bit sarcastic, that's why they are responded to in kind. God is a good God, and I hope that he leads you to a place that will fullfill you. I thank him daily for this site and other's like it.


April - Affair
May - OW tells H that she's pregnant
June - OW's H calls to inform me of affair and pregnancy
August - Present - Working diligently on marriage. In counseling at church.
December - OC Born - NO CONTACT!
May - DNA TEST NEGATIVE - MY H IS NOT THE FATHER. THANK GOD.

My new Title - BS w/ OCS (Betrayed Wife with Other Child Scare)
