I'm back to say hi again and to let you know that my relationship ended because the man wasn't what I expected him to be. Has the breakup been hard? Yes, it really smarts. It's only been a week and I already feel a bit better though. Somehow I think having been with a married man made me stronger and not willing to put up with crap.
So for all of you who are just starting out on the path of NC, stick to it. It works. It's the most painful thing you'll ever go through, harder than quitting smoking I think, but it's worth it in the long run. You'll look back months from now, a year from now like I am, and you won't believe you stayed with the man for so long ...
To all my old friends who helped and encouraged me, including Chris and Noregrets, please say Hi. I'm hurting now and could use some moral support.

Laura,
I'll say more than hi.....
What a different lady you are than when you spoke of the ending of your affair. Yes, it hurts to end relationships, even healthy ones. Yet, from your post it's apparent to me and those of ou old-timers who know you that you're a whole lot
Thanks, your post is encouraging to me.
They also say that what doesn't kill us WILL make us stronger!
Keep learning and growing b/c I know you will come out on top!
Good to see you ;-)
