I feel alot stronger today, I dont feel that the end of the world is near. I know that I still have many things to work on, but today I really felt that I would be ok regardless of whether she wants to stay with OM or not. <p>I have finally come to understood what Plan A is, now if I can continue to exersice patience and good judgment for a few more months . . .<p>just thought it would be good to share a moment of enlightenment.

I am glad you understand Plan A. For me it is the hardest thing I have ever done. I get so mad at WH, but I know yelling, crying etc. is a LB. Is it hard for you to continue it in the face of painful behavior on WS part? How do you cope?

Digitalslavery (love that name), [img]images/icons/wink.gif" border="0[/img] <p>It's so nice to see this bit of enlightenment from you. Did you see my book review on the GQII board - you might find the book Hope For The Separated by Gary Chapman helpful if you haven't already read it.<p>I wish you continued success in your personal healing and recovery!<p> [img]images/icons/smile.gif" border="0[/img]

<blockquote><font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial">quote:</font><hr>Is it hard for you to continue it in the face of painful behavior on WS part?

I can also think about the pros and cons of this situation, right now i see alot of pros to letting her go, I am still early in the game. <p>I can cope because of MB! seriously this site has saved me. I have been reading everything I can, since I have a better idea whats going on than she does, it gives me a sense of control about my life. I dont feel like I am sitting on the couch day and night waiting for the doorbell to ring anymore. <p>breath, relax, move forward . . . .
