Freshstart,<P>Thanks for the concern!!! [Linked Image from marriagebuilders.com]<P>Well to update all who read this:<P>Thanks to God changing me and MB for support, my family is back on the road to recovery!!! My W is doing great and so am I. There has been no contact...nothing. We are rebuilding our friendship and spending LOTS of time just talking and playing around with each other as much as we can even though we have 3 active boys (twins 10 and one 8).<P>To give and example of how far we have come.... we have just moved and were separated for two days....I missed her alot and I know she missed me. She is NOT a morning person AT ALL...anyway... she was sooo excited about seeing me after 2 day she could not sleep and woke the kids up at 6 am and got on the road and when I got home for lunch, she was in the driveway of our new home!!!!! She wasn't supposed to be here until eveing time..... I was soooo happy to see her and the boys. We actually hugged for about a good 5 minutes with a close, heart-felt embrace with 'I love you" 's and "I missed you" 's thrown in there with some kisses. I almost started to cry as did she...<P>so things are REALLY doing GREAT here.... thanks for asking<P>Remember... With GOD, you can do ANYTHING..... alone you will fail.... this is what I have come to realize. It took long enuf.... better than not at all though.... I thank God everyday for what he has done in my life and for me....<P><BR>

Woohoo!!! That's fantastic news!! [Linked Image from marriagebuilders.com]<P>God bless. Don't be afraid to keep posting even with the good news. It encourages the rest of us. I was feeling guilty when things were so unbelievably good about posting but glad I did now. And still am here on the down parts of the roller coaster ride.<P>No contact is so tremendous to help us WS's healing and to earn back our BS's trust. I am facing temptation to contact OM but not romantically. As my anger surfaces toward him, it is hard to control. I thought he was gone but I am learning he can be gone. Last night H and I had a wonderful time together and I think I rather surprised him. That was healing for me to give of myself like that...even better th an pre-A days! I am so thrilled that your W couldn't wait to see you. <P>Your news really brightens my day! Blessings!!!<P>------------------<BR>Fresh Start

I am glad that my new is encouraging to you and maybe others....it feel sgood to be 'loved' by the person you didn't know how to love the right way for sooo many years.... I could cry I am soo happy now.<P>We even send each other emails everyday just to say I love you!!!! I think that is GRAND!!!!! E-cards and the like are GREAT!!!!<P>Thanks to GOD and MB..... W's Love bank is almost overflowing now...... she has opened up for me in ways I have NEVER seen before in 11 years!!!! It's amazing at what love is REALY like.... once you know 'how' to love someone..... you feel it, too... it's soo warm and conforting..... you never want it to stop... and for me and my W...it NEVER will.....never again will I return to the person I was before..... I was ugly then.....thanks to GOD for changing me!!!!!<P>There is LIGHT at the end of the tunnel for everyone!!!!! you may not see it yet... but it is there......hang on....you'll see it soon.....<P>------------------<BR>
