Not sure how many of you will remember me, lots new face on the board since I was here last.


I left my marriage back in August after 22 years. Not all because of the AP, but because of how my H had been treating me. We had drifted apart over the years and there was nothing in common for us any more except for our kids. I was miserable all the time and leaning on the verge of a deep depression. Finally one day something snapped and I decided enough was enough, I simply was not going to live like that anymore. And then it started....H was out to make it as hard and painful as he could. I wont even go into half the stuff that he did. I needed to get out and I finally did.


My AP was there for me every step of the way. I drove 1,800 miles to stay with him for a few days to collect my thoughts and feelings then went to stay with my parents for a few weeks to decide what I wanted to do. During that time AP never pushed me to make any decisions or tried to sway me one way or another like H did. (H did not know about AP at all)

Yeaaahhhhhh! I LOVE happy endings! I know that you have been through a lot, but your story gives me hope that my might end that way too. BUT I'm not holding my breath. Congrats to you and AP/BF. I wish you two nothing but happiness.
