Hi to everyone NEW AND OLD!

I'm just popping in to tell all of you that it's been a year and 3 months since my affair ended. I'm so glad! My life is back on track! Perfect? NO! Better? YES!

I'm sure most of you don't know me but, I was a regular here for over a year, also a co-cl for a short time. I'm a married woman with a daughter who had an affair for a year and a half. The love of my life. Also a total scoundrel who wrecked my life.

Someone was watching over me. I came out of this whole mess intact, more or less. I still speak to him on occasion but, know the boundries.

I basically wanted to tell each of you that ending an affair can be a huge ordeal. One that is worth going through! NEVER GIVE UP! YOU EACH OWN THE POWER TO GET THROUGH THIS!

JUST DO IT!

LOVE TO ALL,

SWEET

sweetestblonde, I am glad you are well out on your way to recovery. I have been feeling the same way for a long time now. I have taken the XMM completely out of my system and he is no longer this phantom who pursued my dreams and life for a long time . Yes, to all who are reading my message there is hope like blonde said, don't give up. Keep working at it and there is light at the end of the tunnel. Good Luck and remember NO CONTACT!!!!

Gosh, What can I say?

To all my old friends, good to hear your voices again! It's been way too long! To New friends great to hear your voices too!

I remember this dark and winding road all too well. Walk around the "potholes" and keep your eye on the light!

I can make one promise! It gets easier! Treasure the advice you receive here. It changed my life for the better! Some of the best friends I've ever had in my life came from this board. There is something about total desperation that unites people and I am much richer for having endured the pain of "Ending An AFFAIR".

I can honestly say to all of you that my XOM would flip his everloving lid if he had a clue how many great people I have met on this board! I traded one scoundrel for more then a dozen great friends!

I thank him for sending me to you!

I'm so glad I ck'd in with all of you!

Thank You!

Peace, Love, and Harmony!

Sweet

Thank you so very much for coming back to post for those of us whose pain is still so new and seemingly insurmountable. Hearing from you was the boost I needed this morning! Thank you again!
