Hi,<P>Some betrayers expressed that they were sorry and felt guilt for what they've done. I wonder, are there any of you who don't? Are there any of you who feel you are now better off?<P>Someone said they felt relief that it was out in the open and that things could be dealt with. What about those who kept denying it? What was your reason for denial? Did anyone feel relief, but still keep cheating? Did you lie about it?<P>I know these questions are invasive. I am hoping that the answers will give me some insight into the mind of my ex.<P>Thanks.

OK. Here goes. I'm a WS. I still feel sorry for the pain I caused my H. Truly.<P>But I can't claim remorse other than that. I'm afraid to say this: In significant ways, OM gave me my life back. I didn't go looking for a relationship, but I also did not act impulsively. I have no regrets about what I actually did, only about the pain it may have caused. <P>There was a time lag of a couple of months between getting the A out in the open and deciding to stay in the marriage. During that time I felt some relief, but still had contact with OM (email and phone). There was no need to lie about it because H and I weren't speaking much anyway and he didn't ask any questions.<BR> <P>
