So I was looking at my calendar today and trying to figure out when EAP and I met. Apparently we met on the 12th of last month, which means in 2 days it will have been a month since we met. I couldn't believe it.

In all my turmoil and confusion, it feels like I met him maybe a week or two ago and he went home just recently. I'm sure a lot of you can relate to how you felt during the beginning of your first A... the confusion, the guilt, the wanting... I don't have the answers yet, but somehow knowing that I've weathered a month of this already, gives me peace and strength.

In the beginning of my A (which is now on its 8th year)..I would be so suprised when I would realize it had been over a month since I had seen my AP.


We would meet at least once a month, we live 3 hours apart and with both of us having jobs and families..it was/is not always easy to spend time together.


The first couple of years were the hardest for me..I wanted to see him all the time..talk to him all the time...


Now we go 3 to 4 to sometimes 6 months without seeing each other...It doesn't bother me at all anymore.

Welcome to the ride!! Sometimes it is great and sometimes you want to shoot yourself in the foot..LOL.


This board is a GREAT place to get support, perspective and just to just talk to someone..There is almost always someone who has been through a similar situation that you are having trouble stuggling with!!

I met my EAP a year ago last December.
