Wait till Thursday. Don't do anything right now. See what develops, and yes, H will be furious.

Just got an e-mail from S teacher. She said she understands and recommend to see a conselor in school. Is that a good idea?

I just cry again. I want to stop crying, but how do I control it?

Believer, thanks for your encouragement.

Time to batten down the hatches. Get ready for a big storm. Your H is going to be mad, so prepare yourself.

Be sure to talk as calmly as you have been. So far you are doing great.

Stay in Plan A as long as you can. Be sure you have some money put aside. Just get prepared for whatever happens. OW's H may make trouble for her too.

Believer,

Are you ok? I am really concern. If you want me to call you, just give me a ring, you don't have to wait till I pick up. I get your phone number, I can call back.

It is a boring night. He is bored. I was reading bible. He already told me that he is not coming home tomorrow.

I am fine. H came over tonight to talk about car insurance. I told him I am filing for divorce. Then we had to go through the same old argument. He keeps saying OW could have been gone, if I took H back. I told him she is not gone after a year.

So the argument went on and on. He thinks I am to blame, that he would come back, if I would take him, and OW would be gone. It just went on and on.
Finally I asked him to leave and he did.

Believer,

I am so sorry for you. I wish my H would want to come back.

He already told me that he is not coming home tognight. My heart is hammered again. I know I shouldn't be like this. Every time he is not coming home, I get this terrible feeling. How I want to get rid of it.

Couple days ago, I told D that I may not be home when in evening, is it ok she watch S. She agree. Because I want to follow H after work. But she asked me about it before H. I guess I can't go this time.

I did pray. Pray for myself, family, for you and everyone out there. I don't know what else I can do. I need to focus my thought somewhere else.

Yes I am fine, and yes you do need to focus your thoughts elsewhere. When you start getting a life of your own, your WH will take you more seriously.

Right now he knows that he can do whatever he wants to do. Last night my H told me that it looks like I am doing well without him, that I have my own life now.

The best you can do is get out doing things. You will get stronger. Then stay in Plan A and wait to see what happens. There is more to come, and your H will want to come back. But you must be strong to handle that in the right way too. Don't do what I did.

I am glad you are fine.

I really want to get strong. But I don't know what to do. I don't have close personal friends here. Then I have to take care of the kids after school. Any advice?

I may look for a church support group to join.

OW's H starts concerning. He said he will work the other end to break them. I hope it works.

I also thought about exposing him to his relatives. One of his cousin was also divorced from an infidelity H. Maybe I can get her to support me?

What would the outcome be if I expose him? Will he get mad? Will he move out? I don't know and I am scared.

OW's H seemed calmer than I am. I recommend him to come here, but I don't know whether he is here. He just lost his job.

Take redhat's advice. He is the expert. Don't dwell on what may or may not happen. Listen to him.
