…now, I’m not sure of it.
Some years ago, I was a frequent visitor here, even though I wasn’t involved with AP. I found it interesting and enlightening of people’s trials and errors in the name of love. That is why this board exists. One woman had lost her AP because he wouldn’t acknowledge all the things he’d said to her whilst he was having his “fun” with her. When the jig was up, and his wife found out, he dropped this woman like she was a leper. Her entire life was washed out. She’d given up home (because her AP was also her boss, and the discovery touched every facet of her life), she lost her dignity (because she believed he loved her, but he capped it off by telling everyone she was just for sex), she lost her entire life. Children included. She came here, and her words were about suicide and mistakes, but also of still loving him. And she did. Several of us during the time made her our “sister”. Kept her from fulfilling her dying wish, consoled her through days of having to rebuild her life. I’d always thought highly of this board, but now.
I’ve been gone from here for some time, just to revisit for bit from time to time to see that all is the same. This board is for support. For those who are trapped in loving someone, whilst lamenting their circumstances which keeps them from living the life that they’d truly love to. To a large degree, that is the truth of this board. Why it exists. Everyone here has a lamentation. Take a look at he posts. There isn’t a clinical psychologist out there who wouldn’t deem most people here, certifiable. There isn’t a Christian out here who wouldn’t have the harshest of criticism of the “sins” here. There isn’t a H or W who’s lives are affected by the people here that would give a rat’s patootie for the crying and lamenting of those here. However, the people here are human. Theirs is life. If what I have written and posted on this board is that of a madman, then what does that make the rest of the people here?

Forgive my confusion, but what exactly are you trying to say???
"be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind"---Dr. Seuss

Read your earlier post and responses so I understand a bit better where this is coming from...all I can say about that one is whew...wouldn't begin to try answering that because I don't have time to give it the thought it deserves.
Hi Secret (waving wildly over here!!)
You stated everything I was thinking beautifully - and so to the OP and others I simply say.......

i understand what you are saying. If we went anywhere else and asked anyone else IRL, we would get the "boo hiss" because affairs are just black-and-white wrong. but the people who post here are "trapped in loving someone, whilst lamenting their circumstances which keeps them from living the life that they’d truly love to" - yet we are human and not villains, they live in the gray. And this is the one place we can live in the gray - the reason the board exists.
i get it.

PS my T doesn't think i'm certifiable - she thinks I'm coping.
