Hello everyone,<BR> It has been so long since I posted that I am sure most of you don't remember me or my story.<BR> My husband and I are about 15 months in recovery and doing better than we ever did in our entire marriage.<BR> I would never have believed we could get where we are today after all the pain and lies of his affair.<BR> Yesterday was our day off from work and while the kids were at school we went to see a movie.<BR> We saw "The Story Of Us" with Bruce Willis and Michele Pheifer.<BR> Wow, what a powerful movie for anyone who has ever been there and back.<BR> I don't want to give the plot away, just to say that we both came out of the movie crying, and feeling like we had to just hold eachother and celebrate the fact that we made it back.<BR> If anyone is in recovery, grab your spouse and go see it.<BR> Maybe even if you are in plan A.

Would it apply to a spouse who is with OW, but still confused about what he wants to do?<P>I just posted update on my situation if that would help you answer.<P>Thanks!

I can't even bear to watch the ads for this movie. Too sad for where I am now.

I've wanted to go see this movie. One question, does anyone have an affair in the movie? Is there a happy ending?

My question is does any one feel it would affect the betrayer...? Do you think we should all ask our spouses who left to go see it..? I have not seen it yet, my self.. and am very ancious to.. but if I feel it is worth seeing for my stbx`s sake, I am going to suggest it to him... (after seeing it of course...) <P>who knows.. maybe he`ll even take **perdue,** and she`ll even see a aprt of her self in there some where too.. <P>AV

Okay to answer everyones questions, no one has an affair. At one point she accuses him of being to close of a friend to a woman at his work, but no one cheats.<BR> I would definatley send a betrayer to see it because most of the movie is them looking back at the good times and realizing what it is they will loose with out the other persion in there life.<BR> After seeing this movie my husband, who was the betrayer he said to me that if I had not forgiven him he would have left the movie in the middle to find me and beg me to come home.<BR> He was crying as much as I was and after he said we should watch it once a month just to remember all the important things in life in case we ever forget again. We won't

Browneyes,<P>I'm really glad you said this about the movie. My H and I are back together for 8 mo now and like you, I never thought we would be better than before. We celebrated our 8th anniversary yesterday and my mom will watch the kiddies sat. night and I really wanted to see that movie but was a little afraid. You have convinced me. I'm wondering if we should have dinner first hmmm. I remember when I saw Titanic I was so choked up at the end I had to go home I <BR>was so emotional. Thanks for the review.. <P>magoskid<BR>

Browneyes,<P>I remember you. I hope you remember me! My H and I are in the same situation as you and your H, with a renewed, stronger, more loving, more intimate and more beautiful relationship than either of us ever dreamed possible. We will be going to see "The Story of Us" this weekend, and after your review, I can hardly wait and will have plenty of tissues on hand for both myself and H. We are both so emotional about our experience and so grateful that God saved us and our marriage.<P>So glad you are doing well. I just popped in to let everyone know that there <B>IS</B> life after infidelity, and it can be a much more fulfilling life than ever before. Yes, a couple of years ago I could say that I had a faithful husband, but that was it. I couldn't really say that I had a husband who would do <B>ANYTHING</B> for me like I can say now. I gave up the <I>luxury</I>, or should I say "false sense of security" of having a husband who'd never cheated, but I gained, so, so much more. I now have the husband of my dreams.<P>God Bless you all! You are all always in my prayers.<P>------------------<BR>No one said this (life) was going to be easy.<P><BR>
