H still hasn't decided between me and OW. He wouldn't send no contact letter. Time to plan A. He did agree to no contact for the next 10 until after Retrovaille. Get this, he wants to go. I even gave him an out and he said no, he wants to go. Maybe he wants to let go of her but just can't. Why can't we have a 12 step plan for this kind of addiction? Going to set up a appointment with SH for myself. H won't do it right now. Says he's not ready. I have SAA. Any pointers will be helpful. <BR> One question: has anyone had to change lifestyle drastically? I have been a homeschool mom for 8 years and now I have to get a job while keeping the home fires going and educating the kids while he travels. I need some encouragement.<BR>LMH<P>------------------<BR>Rejoice in hope, endure in affliction, persevere in prayer. Romans 12:12

Just wanted you to know there is a 12 step program for people who have "love, relationship, sex addictions." My husband has an addiction to "secret relationships" or affairs to put it plainly. There is even at least one place in Arizona that has an in-patient treatment facility for people struggling with these addictions. It is so painful for everyone involved. I am actually going to a 12 step program for the co-dependant of an addict.

Kasey,<BR> Thanks for your reply. I should have known that there was help out there. And you are right about the pain. I didn't know that I could survive such pain. But here I am, hanging in here. <BR>LMH<P>------------------<BR>Rejoice in hope, endure in affliction, persevere in prayer. Romans 12:12
