Elise,
glad you came here to MAS. There are some great people here.

Hs1754, thank you for the advice, I really need it.
Elise,
It sounds like you've had a lot of transition in your life in the past few years. But good for you for losing the weight. That must feel like a great accomplishment even if your husband appeared not to notice.
I'm sorry about that. My xH was not every interested in sex either. And that really can play with your emotions, as I know too well. I met my xAP at a time when I was feeling very discouraged and empty in my M. I started losing weight and just reveled in this man's attention. It was great to feel good about myself again...to feel like a woman instead of everyone's wife, mother, maid, or co-worker. I just lost myself for awhile.
I also was the more motivated one from a career standpoint. Always was and I just could not understand why my xH. was not as assertive or able to make things happen. It was frustrating.
So I do understand the attaction and the very real feelings you've developed for your AP. But it sounds like the relationship is turning the other direction--it's bringing you less happiness than it once did and you are starting to question why things aren't turning out for you like they do for others.
Yeah, I've done that too. Still do sometimes. But then I just remind myself that the grass is always greener. Other peoples' lives may look shiny and bright on the outside, but who really knows what's lurking underneath?
When I feel this way, I try to remind myself of the good things I do have to be grateful for in my life.
