I don't have a thread per se. Mrs. Wondering is a good one to look for.

If renewed contact means OM contacted you, then the best bet is to not respond at all, tell DH immediately, and try to remove that mode of contact.

If it's backsliding into contact, the best step is still to tell DH immediately, remove that mode of contact, stay accountable, and then move forward from this day forward in NC

No, OM didnt. WW still in contact with OM? �Seems hopeless? �Yet part of me cannot give up. Still love her, my family. Friend just told me my M is "over." I cannot accept that yet. �Am I unrealistic?

Not backsliding. Just having hard time figuring out plan, coping with doubts, asking myself if it's possible for a WW to change her tune, how does a WW do that, is it possible to recover?

smm, I would recommend you start your own thread. That way, people can read through your story and be able to offer advice accordingly.

Otherwise, it's a little tricky to try picking up details here and there all over the board. smile

I noticed your sig. Am looking for inspiration about my WW. Find it hard at times to think that she can wake up even after the events which have transpired. Still feel strong all things considered. Have faith and love her still. Just realized was never really in recovery (FR).

Thought it would be easier for people to discuss these sorts of things on your own thread rather than continue the threadjack here. No matter.

Sorry, Dr. Tawanda! Many congrats to you guys!

I am working on becoming a Doctor of Nursing here in a few years. My goal is to become either a Nurse Practitioner (specializing in Psychiatry or Family Practice).
