Just wanted to offer up some hope. A few who were around a few months ago may remember my story. Married 12 years, together 17, (4 school age kids) and found out my wife has had a couple affairs over the last year. D-Day was Oct, 2009.
We have been through a lot of therapy. One together. Two separate ones for me. I spent some time with a Pastor learning about forgiveness, which has helped a lot. Also started taking some happy meds, which has also helped a lot.
We are still together. We are looking forward. It has been by far the most difficult thing I have ever done, and it is still a work in progress. But I can tell folks just starting down this road that it will get easier. The horrible days will become just bad days. And then you will actually have some good days. You will even have great days again. Please hold on for a while. All hope is not lost.
A couple of days ago I had the first great day in several months. And all I could think about is how close I was to throwing in the towel. I never would have had these experiences, and these great days.
So to those who let me vent on here....thanks. For those who shared their own stories.....thanks. And to affaircare...thanks. Who knows what might have happened if not for all the help I have gotten over the last several months.
Also would not have gotten through with out my Faith.
Thanks to all, and be strong for those in the beginnings.
