OK,something's up with my WH. I talked to him this morning about kids and he was so friendly and warm. My suspicion is that he is finally comfortable with his decision to leave and divorce and things are going well with OW. The day he asked me about changing kid weekends, he was in a terrible mood. I think she had complained. There's been three nights now that he probably stayed at her house or vice versa.
At least when he was distant, I thought he felt a little guilty with his actions and was wondering what did I do?
Comments.
Thanks.

Give it time, CS. DDay was only a few short (although it seems like an eternity to us BS's) weeks ago. If WH asked to change visitation weekends because OW complained, that's great, big LB on her part. Let them have each other right now, let them be together as much as they want and let the reality of the A feed on itself and destroy whatever feelings they currently have for each other. God is on your side and He will give you the strength you need to get through this!<p>For now, read, read and read some more, there are a lot of great resources out there and continue that counseling for yourself. Study MB principles and come up with a plan on how to improve yourself. Focus on you and the kids, don't worry about WH, let him have his fantasy, there really isn't anything you can do about it right now anyway. Almost anything he says right now can probably be dismissed as fog-ese babble so don't take too much of what he says personally. Most WS's will say the most outrageous things in order to justify the A, I'm sure that most of us have heard almost all of the same lines your WH has or will say.<p>The A will destroy itself, it was created on lies, deceptions and falsehoods, it needs the bubble of secrecy in order to survive. Now that it has been revealed, the bubble has been burst and the A can no longer be as fun as it once was. That doesn't mean it will go away easily, one or both of them may try to hang onto the A with everything they have, but it is a futile battle, it will end, it just has to die on its own, if you try and interfere, you may prolong it.<p>Be strong CS, use this forum to vent instead of WH. The weekend is coming up, what do you plan on doing for yourself and the kids. Go out and have some fun, you all deserve it. [img]images/icons/smile.gif" border="0[/img]

What loveherstill said...<p>I need to find the "Affairs For Dummies" thread! Affairs For Dummies <p>Just keep on keeping on... I know it is hard NOT to focus on WH and OW and what they are doing... and I know you think he's NOT thinking of you...<p>...but he is...<p>Hugs,

Hi. Thanks. I just want some clues as what the heck H is thinking. I know, I can't trust anything now anyway.
Today I was on a field trip with my oldest child and I felt actual physical pain because I miss my WH so much (which is different than the throwing up because I am crying so hard). I never thought anything could be this bad. I will see WH alot this weekend as we are doing kid's b-day together and games. It's harder for me to see him than not see him. I am just going to keep my mouth shut.
Bye!
