I know that many of us have or had connections to the xAP on social networking sites. This is a link to help you with your privacy settings in the instances when you want less of your profile available and are unable/unwilling to go the extra step to fully block whoever you need to. Also, this is just good practice to restrict your public information.

And I'd heard you were a Bejeweled freak! LOL I know what you mean though and I pretty much only keep up with status posts, photos and sharing links. I guess I'm not much of a writer these days although I used to write LOTS of emails daily. :) I'm sure you know what I'm talking about. I spend WAY too much time with the thoughts in my head and today was a difficult day. (I even changed my photo to reflect how I was feeling.) That's what inspired the restriction ideas because most of mine were set to "Everyone." I want to change that very soon and will.

Well...there you have it...the main reason why I needed to change my settings...so everyone wouldn't know I am a Bejeweled Freak!! :)


I'm sorry you had a difficult day.

I made a difficult discovery that I'm not quite ready to share details about. It made me aware that even though I'd always doubted that MY MM lied to me, he indeed did. Total misrepresentation and there was NO reason for it. Why do they do it? It's not like we both were unaware of what we were doing. MM always portray their marriages as unhappy and unfullfilling. I'm sure I'd have been confused as to why he'd have an affair if he'd said all was wonderful on the homefront but at least it'd have been honest. I always said to him that he didn't need to lie to me and could tell me anything. Also...another discovery, although I'd suspected this one, but it's really trivial. He said he wanted to share an interest of mine and I'd set up something for him but when we parted, I no longer had "any say." I see he's reverted to his old ways and is not making a pretense of liking what I like anymore. (Sorry I can't be more specific but he knows about this site since I used to send him lots of links to messages.)

Thanks for the shoulder and the ear Clarity. I know I'll get over this eventually. I just hate setbacks and I'm nearly 3 months with very LC - over two weeks total NC.

(Edited to remove some details and acknowledge the kind support offered by Clarity.)
