For those who have been the WS - I have a question. <P>Some background:<P>My stbx husband has been involved with someone since he moved out. It has made me almost crazy with the feelings of rejection, abandonment, jealousy, etc.<P>What I'm wondering is, despite his fog over OW, when he is finally confronted with the reality of me moving on and dating someone else and having someone else besides him be in a fatherly role in my children's lives...will he experience any of those feelings...will it give him any sense of empathy for what he put me through?<P>I know none of you "know" him - but I'm just wondering from your own experiences...did it bother you/lift the fog a little when the person you dumped started moving on?<P>Thanks for your input!<P>Lisa<P>------------------<BR>---------<BR>To err is human, to forgive divine.

Lisa,<P>I too am a betrayed spouse and my x has just learned I am dating again, unless my kids told her about my previous dates, by seeing me at the kids sporting events with her.<P>SO far she hasn't said anything. I would imagine it may take some of her guilt away(if she has any!) to know I am moving on.<P>Bob

His is ok but mine isn't....<P>He has never explained that comment, and after yesterday, I doubt he'll ever speak to me again.<P>Who knows where they go to in their heads.<P>Jo
