The last time this was bumped up was on 12/27, so it's time to do it again. I see we have some new names and lurkers that have come forward. How about telling us more about yourself and you can also go back and read about the gals already in this thread, many who are still posting their words of encouragement and support.

I don't understand all the terminology yet, but I think I'm a newbie.

Hi all...I'm a new poster but not new to the board -- I have been lurking here for a little over a year now.


I am M for 10 years now but I

Hi Iddy, I am a long time lurker. Been M for 13 years. In an affair for 2+ yrs. New years resolution was to end A. So it has been very new for me and EAS has been a huge support for me as I knew it would be from my lurking around the last yr or so. I have 3 young kids and H has his faults but I need to try and make things work. I love him. But I am not in love with him. Haven't been for many yrs now. Way before A started. I am on a rollercoaster. I have been on one when I was in the A. And now I am in the foggy rollercoaster. Feel very alone. To be honest I wish I could dissappear for a couple days to clear my head but I can't. I won't leave my kids. So I will rely on this group to get me by.

Hey Tiger,


Greetings from C4E! (Remember me?) I guess I'm one of the "golden oldies" you refer to and one of those for whom this site was a true lifeline. Thankfully, with the help of friends here (TTS, NoWay, Tiger, Josie, what), I found my way out of a miserable marriage AND tumultuous A. I have been seeing a wonderful man for about a year now and life is good. It hasn't been easy. There were times I thought the pain of my A and the my addiction to "him" would swallow me whole, but I am living proof that you ladies (and gentlemen) CAN find your way out of the fog. I promise you can. Lean on this board for support and trust that the words you're reading are true...even the ones that are hard to hear. I never would have made it without some great friends and a little tough love from this board.


Love and strength to all of you going through this difficult time. I promise you life will one day again return to some sense of sanity and normalcy. Your life has unquestionably been changed4ever, as was mine. But you will make it through. Promise!


Hugs!
C4E

Hey C4E,


Good to see you post in. It's been a long time but your news is wonderful. How I remember your struggle...you were one of those tough nuts to crack, so hearing your update is very inspirational.


Tiger has been MIA for quite a while until her one post a few weeks ago. We are friends on FB so I will let her know you stopped by to say "Hi."


Never told you this but I had chosen "Change4ever" as my moniker on another board before you showed up here. I was freaking out at first thinking I was on the wrong site. Anyway, great choice for a name. LOL


Thanks for chiming in. It's always great to hear from those that have weathered the storm and are now living life out in the sunshine. ;-)


((Hugs))

Hi C4E,

Glad to hear from you!!! I am really happy to hear that things are going well for you. I still have the few emails we exchanged back then, as well. I know you really struggled with trying to date after ending things with your X. I'm glad you succeeded in that and are now living a new, normal life without the roller coaster rides.

I don't hang around here anymore. Just got curious a few weeks ago to see if anyone I knew ever came back to the board. Life is back to normal for me... at least as normal as it can get... which isn't too normal... hahaha. Thanks Id for the message this morning. I'm also friends with TTS on FB who is also doing very well!

Take care!

Tiger.
