BD~

I don't regret ending my affair, just that it took me 3 tries to do it. ;-) I don't regret cyberly meeting some fabulous women through this forum. I don't regret all of the emotional and spiritual growing I have done since my ending, and I don't regret living the honest and open life that I have now.

((Hugs))

Much like Iddy said, I don't regret the good that has come from something so wrong. I've grown so much. My heart is bigger and I see things in a different light than I did pre affair. I also don't regret that the affair made me realize what I have. I live a very nice life and it took an affair to make me realize how lucky I was/am. I'm thankful I woke up and smelled the coffee! The affair also caused me to reach deeper and tackle issues I had ignored or filled with xAP. It's so empowering to "get it".

I don't regret the personal growth I am experiencing.
I don't regret the newfound productivity in my work life.
I don't regret living my own life (my real life).

There is so much more, but those are the BIG ones that I rejoice in everyday.

I do not regret FINALLY taking a stand for myself and sticking to it

I do not regret looking in the mirror and not liking what I see
I do not regret smiling and laughing
I do not regret the time and energy I have put into this board
I do not regret getting tough love from Clarity or anyone else
I do not regret pouring my soul out/deepest darkest secrets to strangers who have cared for me, even when I did not care much about myself.
I do not regret staying NC, despite a fishing attempt at a vulnerable time.

I don’t regret learning that escaping from RL isn't the answer. I’m learning to appreciate life even during inclement weather days.


Much love and big hugs,

Whether you think you can or you think you can’t you are probably right.

Whether you think you can or you think you can't you are probably right. A parrot can repeat what it has learned but the mark of true intelligence is applying what is learned.

Taking a stand for ourselves - that's a big one for me. Thanks luvinme for posting that. By ending the affair, yeah,

I don't regret coming to the realization that happiness is an inside job.

I do not regret learning that I (still) have lots of healing to do.

I don't regret actually hearing my h with all my heart...really listening to everything he says instead of hearing a voice in the distance and thinking of xap. I've learned more about h and the man and his values since NC than in the whole 30 years we have been married!

Xap is now in the far distance without a voice or face!
