SB,

You are allowed to be happy. Encouraged, even. We are all cheering over your good news.

But I don't think you are allowed to leave.

Just sayin'.

Oh, SB,

I will miss your insight so much. You have posted some really wonderful things about your own, personal recovery that have helped me immensely. Thanks for doing your tour with us here at MB. It was an honor and privilege to have you with us, helping us fight.

Your post was beautiful. Hopefully, you'll poke your head in once in a while and give us an update.

SB,

I don't believe I've ever posted to you. I have read many of your post assisting others. My response was always "WOW". You have a gift that will be missed.

Congrats to you and your H for the progress you have made! I wish you a long and happy M.

Congratulations and the best of luck!

As somebody who chose the posting name mere mortal for myself, I cannot even imagine what the ego-inflation-infliction you suffer from feels like! Must be fun... for you anyway.

SB ~ hopefully you will consider just taking a break, and then coming back. And if you don't want to deal with the direct affair-related stuff, you could still hang around and help us decifer the trolls / puppets / etc. around here!

You will be sorely missed!!

(((hugs)))

I wanted to Thank You for the encouragement and support and ideas you shared with me and with others.

Especially Thank you for sharing with us your experience the other night. You have given many people hope with what happened with your h the other night.

Because of you and several other wonderful people on this site our marriage is finally turning around and I cannot thank you enough.

Thank you so much for posting in my thread and helping me.
I have saved all your posts and I need to read it a lot more times in the future. I can tell you that those won't go wasted...
About the kiss I talked to you about, last night, it happened. We kissed passinately before SF. I could tell it took him some strength and hesitation, but we did it and we enjoyed it a lot. The reason behind the several months hesitation, I will ask him also. I know I will. I'm working on overcoming the fear of talking to him about any negative feelings and I can see it's making progress.
I wish you could stay longer...keep in mind that your advice has been so apprecaited and helped so many people...
Take care and have a great holiday season.

SB,

schoolbus, don't worry, I'll take your place here on this board. I'm sure people are not thrilled with your leaving, but they are in good hands.


Holy Moly...

This person is really a prententious antagonist...

I really thought that they might have chosen this name as a tongue in cheek kinda name. They really THINK that it is true. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/eek.gif" alt="" />

Comments such as these make it very clear as to their agenda.
