Hello, just checking out to see if there are any WS out there, so far i've not come across many. As a WS who is trying to reconcile with W, i would like to hear of some of the experiences of those alike. I also would like to know if any of you still thinks of OP or secretly wishes you were still with OP? Perhaps not or else you wouldn't be in MB site now, huh? Anyway i appreciate any sorta reply.

Hi painforever,<BR>and let me tell you the pain doesn't last forever, it does get better and easier to bear. I am a WS myself. I sent a no contact letter to the OM in March. It has been very hard. I have moments where my thoughts are completely focused on him and I have to shake them out of my head. I have times when I feel extremely depressed over things, but<BR>I remind myself that I know in my heart that I have done the right thing by going back to my H. But it takes time to get over the OP. Don't rush things and don't neglect to grieve over the loss. If you do that it will take longer to get past things. If you have more questions that you feel uncomfortable asking on here, please email me at<BR>deblynne_45@yahoo.com. I have been where you are and we are recovering. And for that I am very thankful.<P>dlm (debbie)

Hi, Painforever,<BR>I am not in your shoes now, but I was for months. It was so hard to see OM and his smiles and know (think?) he loved me so and feel tremendous love for him. <BR>I cried day after day, some because I missed OM and some because I knew I was so wrong for my feelings, and it took a long time to get to the point that I didn't cry daily. <BR>I feel much better now, partly because, I guess, he showed his true colors when the A was exposed. <BR>Just hang in there, Satan can make you think you love someone, but he can't imitate true love. True love is God's domain.<BR>Hope I have made sense.<BR>wentcrazy<BR>
