Thanks for all of you for the support. Justuss has fixed the problem.
I don't know what Justuss did, but I trust that we won't see that poster around much anymore.
Somehow, I think someone else will also disappear along with BA. And I won't miss the other one either.
As for me signing off, yes, I'm still doing that. But that doesn't mean I'm gone forever. Of course I have to read and check in. I just need to move ahead in my world.
The affair took its toll on our marriage. Cancer took its toll on our lives together. We have weathered two long difficult years together, and we are falling in love again.
This website had so much to do with that. I am forever indebted to Marriage Builders. I have sent countless friends here.
That being said, there is also a time when one must acknowledge that moving forward and changing the focus is the next best step. For me, that time is now. We think about what we talk about, and talk about what we think about. My husband and I are talking and thinking about new things now, about our future, and loving.
We are talking of recovery. Of what we are doing today, and tomorrow. We know that the mistakes we both made yesterday will not be forgotten, and that they put us into the position we are in today - and somehow that turmoil led us to forge a new marriage, a better marriage. We both wish that we knew then what we know now. But we didn't. Yet, from the pain and devastation a phoenix has risen, and now we are riding the wings of that bird.
So coming here every day is no longer what I need. I need
him.
Us.
Because it is what Marriage Builders has made for me -
A new marriage, a happy place to be.
And I don't want to miss any of it.
So while I say "good-bye", of course I will check in. Because maybe I can help sometimes. Or maybe I need a booster shot.
Or maybe I miss old friends.
And just maybe that one time I check in, I can tell my story to the one person who needs to hear it. That you CAN rebuild after infidelity. You CAN get off that rollercoaster ride, and it DOES come to an end.
You CAN fall in love again.
I did.

So SB, I guess that makes you one of the "mythical" recovered marriages, lol. (I am one too, but don't feel that I am a myth, more of a mythuth, really. Ohhhhhh. Nothing like a bad pun so early on a Sunday morning.)
Have a splendid life, and when you check in, believe me we'll have no trouble recognizing that it is you.
And 3 cheers again for our hero JustUss!!!!!!!!

It seems that MelodyLane has appeared about the same time BestAdvisor dissappeared. Who's schoolbus2? Is that the same person as MelodyLane? BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! This is a joke, right? BA1, you have GOT to be kidding. I just cannot believe that you have nothing better to do with your time than to harass people around here. Get a life, BA... <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif" alt="" />

BA1, If Mel is a schoolbus, You had better hope the heck you're not standing in the middle of the road when she comes roaring through your neigborhood. (ROTHFLMAO) <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
All Blessings, Jerry
PS: Mel, the next time you decide to excuse yourself from this forum, you had better raise your hand and ask for permission to do so. How rude <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/mad.gif" alt="" />

Busted, I admit it!
Now, after I go back and edit the deliberate misspelling and lack of proper punctuation, will you please go and do the same to your quote so the circuits of my brain do not misfire any more than they have?
Much appreciated.
