I know there is at least one out there. I am desperate to talk to someone, no one understands why I am willing to hang in there and the hope that I have. Please help

Welcome to MB. I am an American, but certainly you can get support here. What is your situation?

I'm American but I lived in Germany when I was a kid.
Its a pretty universal thing about most people not understanding why a betrayed spouse would hold out hope. We have members all over the world, different nationalities, religous backgrounds and cultures...most post in English. It seems your English is fine.

We get it. Whats going on?

Servus!!!

I'm in Germany...............so if you need a ear, just go ahead.

I'm not a born German (I'm Canadian) but I've been here for over 30years and I'm VERY familiar with the mentality.

Growthspurt - You will find that everyone here UNDERSTANDS your situation. We understand it because we have lived through it ourselves, despite what everyone and anyone else might have said.

You will NOT get the amount of support and advice from only ONE individual (and I know Blondblossom well from our conversations over the years) that you really might need, but from the broad base of folks of here on MB who you may find a wealth of knowledge based on the "school of hard knocks." You may even find those whose own situation was very similar to your own.

Regardless, blondblossom will do an excellent job for you in answering some of your questions.

Good luck!
