Great truthful title to a thread.

We moved and the OW lives several states and about 1200 miles away. I wish OW lived in another country -- no make that the moon.

I believe a man like this has told the truth. He is hopelessly entangled and needs all the help possible to be kept away from his lover and stay faithful to his wife.



"I often recommend that a man once involved in an affair come in to see me every three to six months on an indefinite basis, just to talk about how things are going and to let me know how successfully he has stayed away from his lover."



One item on the EP list that often gets missed.

A NEUTRAL party that hopefully knows this program that helps to hold us waywards accountable.

Some one who is not afraid to say "YOUR sheeiit stinks"

4-EVER.

Indefinate Basis.

AS in periodically see this counselor as long as you live

The addictive nature of A's & AP's is so strong that indefinate basis is the truth.

WE obsess...

Websters dictionary: Obsess..........To preoccupy the mind with an idea or an emotion; to be abnormally preoccupied

Over 20 years later I still at times wonder what FOW is up to.

Thank God the counselor I see knows the power of and how the addictive nature works Dr. H is talking about.

And....Better yet... knows me.... Knows My ADDICTIVE nature ...And tells me when it stinks!!


He must resign himself to a lifetime without her. HE MUST CERTAINLY NOT WORK WITH HIS FORMER LOVER AND SHOULD PROBABLY LIVE IN SOME OTHER CITY OR STATE. Even with those restrictions the desire for her company persists...


Just my 2 cents

That's a good point, nesre. I think Dr. Harley has mentioned some former waywards he has counseled, particularly men, continue to speak with him once every few months or so, just to talk about how things are going.
