To all of you who have been trying to help me, your efforts have paid off. Last night my wife and I began our reconciliation. Today I wrote the NC letter to the OW with my wifes approval of content (my choice to let her see it before I sent it). I wanted her to know I am for real. My thanks go out to especially the following...
RedHat
LovingAnyway
Believer
Star*Fish
You stuck with me and cared when we needed you. We will be seeking MC as soon as possible.

What an answer to prayer!!!! I've been praying for you, but kind of felt that I was not too helpful, being a BS myself. LovingAnyway has a real gift, and I love her posts.
Hope that everything goes well. Please, please continue posting here.

Just had to add my $.02 here (with A4A's permission this time!). Thank you for all your help and prayers. This whole situation has God's fingerprints all over it, not the A itself, but the work he's been doing in me (and us) throughout this whole ordeal.
Whaddya think...should A4A change his user name? He's got his answers now!

I'm so happy for you both. The Lord does work miracles. Hang in there - recovery isn't easy.

You are right about that, but I know God will see us through this. I know everything will be OK once I am clear of the "drug effect".

Anxious4 - If you get a chance, please post about how all of this happened for you. There are so many people here who could use some hope.

You made a tough decision, A4A. I think you wrestled an angel inside of you for the blessing you wanted. You were already fighting the drug. You'll get clear of it.
Bit? Welcome home to yourself and your marriage. "Diligence" is showing persistent care (yeah, my definition). Be diligent for your marriage; honor it like you honor God--he is the only third party allowed in.
Be well and thrive. Personal recovery and marriage recovery are the keys. You both know that.
Believer has strong prayers. When the road gets tough, remember, God only answers what the heart prays...and you prayed for each other all along.

Believer, I will write the story when I am clear of this. I am having a bit of a hard time tonight. Thank you for your prayers.
