I wrote a pretty scathing reply to a post regarding best friends and betrayal...after I posted it, I forwarded the entire thing to the OW...my former best friend. <BR>Then, something happened to make me realize that it was all in the past and what was done is done...if she's important to him, than I can't fight that any longer. I have more important and exciting things to be concerned with right now!<BR>Because, after I sent that to her, I took a pregnance test!!! And, the rabbit died!!!!<BR>Yes, I'm scared...I'm excited...I'm feeling things I've never felt before! Such a feeling of peace.<BR>I told H when he got home...said if he ever wanted to leave, this was now the time, because I CAN go thru the pregnancy and raise this baby by myself...alot of pretty wonderful women do it!<BR>She called me after receiving the email and tried to talk to me. I couldn't believe how easy it was to tell her I finally realized she was never and friend and she had nothing to say I wanted to hear. And, hung up.<BR>Very calm...very cool and collected! It doesn't sound like much but I was really proud of myself.<BR>H still hasn't fully accepted the pregnancy...he hasn't said much about it at all other than to tell me I knew he wanted to wait a couple more years to have kids....<BR>Well, this child was meant to be...It was God's will...and there is no one to blame because he/she will be loved so fully!!<BR>What's funny is, after seeing the results of the test, I haven't obsessed about her...or them possibly being together. <BR>I don't want him to think he has to stay with me because we're having a child together. I want him to stay because he loves me and wants to be with me.<BR>I've basically taken a "what will be will be" attitude. <BR>As usual, I'm rambling...but, I just had to share my wonderful news before I EXPLODED!!!

Big congrats!!!! <P>And yes, you're right about the past being in the past...<P>Best wishes as you care for yourself, your marriage and your beautiful baby!!!!<P>~Sheryl
