I finally come here with good news...
WW came to me on her own and has told me the affair is over and see wants to have that great marriage I have been saying we could have.
She has been openly repentant and very very remorseful for what she has done... At one point she said she was so sick to her stomach for what she has done... She can see now just how stupid she has been... She said a dozen times over how stupid could i be. She told me that she wants to be with me and never ever lie about anything. She said she wants to spend time together and asked if i would take places. She said she wants to be happy and in love with me.
She said that she was so blind and can't believe she let things get so bad and how could she have ever thought of losing me.
She also shown anger towards OM and anger at her self for letting this go on.
She was not angery with me at all.. She did not one time blame me for anything... She blames herself for letting this happen and feels used by OM.

She also agreed to a no contact plan and did agree to setting down and working out a "what if" plan for assuring safety of herself and our family.

We had a great time last night with some friends in public outdoors... Can you believe that one? Yes, locally in public out doors... She shown no signs of concern of where we were or anything... Both of us actually did not even think about [censored] or how horrible the last year has been.

Later at home last night she said...You know what? We had fun and i did not even think or feel bad... In fact I felt really good tonight and thank you so much for everything. I'm so glad you went with me tonight. I'm so lucky to have you... You saved me didn't you? You really saved me...

Gotta run...
Thanks everyone

Great

Now that the easy part is over on to recovery

Mr. Wondering

p.s.- I really am happy for you and as I told you before it really doesn't matter how it ends, only that it ends. Now recovery is where you finally get the chance to really restore and rebuild your marriage or NOT. She can not just sweep this under the rug...SHE has a lot of "villigers to own". But then again, don't they all.

p.p.s.- wow, you and MywifeIlove on the same day...I am finally at peace.

Dazed,

After all the tears and pain you have been through and one of the best planA'S I have ever read you are now on the road to recovery.

I am very happy for you and pray for your family as the real work now starts. Its not going to be easy as you know. I don't have any words of wisdom for you as i never had and probably never will have the chance for recovery. But from all I have read it's not easy. There are going to be days of ups and downs.

Take it a day at a time Dazed and I know you will be a sucess story. Keep us updated and always remember come here to vent, cry and share your happy moments.

God Bless you Dazed for hanging in there......
