It has been nearly two years since you responded to me and I haven't replied until now.

You better have a damn good reason!

Mrs. GH31 and I are still married, raising our two children and love each other again. We have uttered the ILYs again, have sex on a regular basis, and she has once again become the woman I fell in love with. We talk all the time, chit chat throughout the day and do virtually everything together.

Oh, okay! That'll serve! grin

Wow! What a pleasant surprise, to have you return after 18 months!

Are you and she following all the MB principles/practices - UA, O & H, RH, EN attention, etc, etc? They will speed and reinforce the feelings of attachment and healing that you are experiencing.

Would you want to fill us in on the "path" between July '11 and January '13?

That's an awesome story. Glad to see the update really gives me hope that my WW will someday hop out of the fog and her A. I am happy that God has blessed you both with a second chance at your marriage. I am sure your kids will see you as an awesome role model for their adult private lives.

Hello Tranquil,

Thank you for your well wishes. I'm afraid the God stuff is lost on me (I'm an atheist for all intents and purposes) but I sincerely appreciate the spirit in which your words are meant.

There is hope. Read what posters like Mortarman or mywifeilove do (and did) and follow their lead even if it seems counterintuitive.

Adulterous spouses don't hop out of the fog, rather they emerge from it, as if slowly waking up from a coma.

What you do now will determine how and indeed whether this happens.

I am still learning each and every day how to do this husband thing.

Best,
GH31
