GVT you're an inspiration. God bless you. I'd say talk to her but take it one issue at a time and start with a small one so she doesn't feel she's getting dumped on. Then tackle one a week. I B praying for you.

Sounds wonderful that she may be coming home. Have you read SAA(Surviving and Affair)? It has ground rules that need to be set for the WS to return - like no contact with OP. It also details the 4 Rules of Recovery, which are also posted on teh main MB site. You should probably read all you can on the site about recovery, false starts etc. so that you know what to expect from you and from her. Good Luck! K

I am reading the book now and am working the issues with the limited contact I have with her (mostly emails). Ours isn't a "typical" (but whose is) case with the other deep seated emotional issues from her past thrown in so things have to be taken in time as well. Once I get her home I believe that things will go fairly smoothly although I know that the road will have some major potholes in it. Some of those can be avoided but undoubtedly some will jar the axle quite a bit. My shocks are in great shape and I know the that destination is paradise so the bumps along the way won't bother me as much. <p>Wish me luck
