Originally Posted by KaylaAndy Plan B will allow time for the demons to be truly expelled from a wayward who desires to retain a relationship with you. Plan B lets them scream, rant, rave, to the silent unlistening walls. Let their pride crumble at your unyielding Plan B remoteness. If they have the heart to recover. Plan B removes you from caring. You are rebuilding your sanity. Your life moves on a separate track, developing the ability to think clear of the poison - the sweet and the bitter both. You will be able to make decisions for your future, based on your own best interests and those interests and needs of your children. You will find the ability to laugh again. Some days I hate Plan B. I have not found it easy, I know no-one does although many are better at recovering than others. Even though I find Plan B difficult, I look at where I was before it and know where I would be without it... and where I am right now is a much better place. A friend told me on the weekend that without Plan B I would be in hospital. I think she is likely right. And I can laugh again. Actually, I can debate again, as a family friend pointed out recently, that is something he had missed about me! Thanks for encouraging and reminding us Plan B'ers of our commitment to recovering not only our marriages, but more importantly, our commitment to recovering ourselves. Me (BW): 35 Married 1999 with no kids, DDay July 2011, OC born September 2012, Divorce final November 2012. WXH (Gollum) is corrupted by his A, and now forever bound to it. Plan B has set me free. "Mourn the man he was. Know the man he is."
