This is the first long weekend since my d-day. I have relatives visiting,although they are not staying at my house.We will have a family gathering on Monday. My H will not be there as he is living with the OW.My father will ask me where he is (he's 80 and no one has told him about us).This is going to be very hard. I'm thinking of telling them that I'm sick so I don't have to face everyone. The hardest part is that H is not with me as he has been in the past on long weekends. How are you coping?

Hello MAEZY,<P>I am so sorry for your situation, and for the stress and pain you will be dealing with this weekend.<P>Ick.<P>That sounds so hard!! [Linked Image from marriagebuilders.com] <P>I'm one of those people who think you should just be honest, but everyone handles things differently. You have relative visiting and I'm sure they want to see you! Maybe the gathering isn't the best place to blast it all out to them... but could you take some select family members aside and tell them to kinda protect/support you through this?<P>Best wishes on this one. It's tough.<P>------------------<BR>~Sheryl<BR>(a bit worse for the wear, but hanging in there)<P><B>Life <I>is</I> difficult</B>.<BR><I>The Road Less Traveled</I><BR>~M. Scott Peck
