That Honeymoon Stage

I never really thought about it until I read another posting, but, I am in that "honeymoon stage" in my A with my MM. Our A started in Sept. and we carried it to the intimate level during a weekend get-away in Nov., which we specifically planned just to be together. I really am anxious for his calls, his e-mails, and find myself irritable with my H and my child when I long to talk to him. It is a LDEMA and I can hardly wait to see him later this month. We talk 3 times each week and e-mail 4-5 times each week but it just isn't enough. How many others are in the "honeymoon stage" right now? Does this stage ever end like it does with H?

Hi girl! Sounds like your A started the same time as mine. I was pretty worried when my MM told me he would call me before he went out of town to visit family over Thanksgiving. I paniced, thought the worst. Came here and cried on EVERYONE'S shoulder. But after some very good advice, mainly "He's busy with work, the holiday....relax it will be ok.", it turned out to be ok. He emailed Thanksgiving and said he missed me terribly and hoped to see me soon. When he returned, the first night he was back on line and we chatted, the following day was Saturday I had errands to run, he called my cell. Turned out he was a few blocks from me. So we met to say hi, just 10 minute meeting, but seeing him having him say he missed me, and that I looked so beautiful, made all my fears melt away.

I told myself if I'm going to get that upset over one missed phone call. Then I need to end things now, it's no way to live. Since I didn't want to end things, I learned to relax more, and remember he has a W, DD & DS, stressful work, and he's missing me as much as I miss him!

Hang in there.....the girls here are right, it gets better!
