Over the past few days, I've been noticing how many new members we have on the boards.

Thanks NRY,

It's really nice of you to say what you have, even if I do feel outta place here now (mind you, everyone is welcome to any wisdom that I've acquired from a 4-year affair with a MM).

Emotionally this is a nightmare as I can't believe that the man I honestly still love could do this to me.

But he did. Just gotta get over it now...and I will hopefully.

Thanks for the email offer...I may just take you up on that.

Love & light to you.

S. xx

Actually, I did feel like the lurker thread was aimed somewhat at me, as I was not a "regular" and had only been around for a week or two.

But when I posted a fairly detailed introduction, I received one unpleasant response, no others, and then witnessed the escalating argument you reference.

So, I guess I'm not real motivated to stick around. I haven't been back since that awful thread, and despite no negrets' post, I just don't feel welcome. I'd really like to get some support, have someone to talk to, but I guess this isn't the answer.

I'm very sorry to hear that sky cat. I can assure you that thread was not at all aimed at you. It was aimed at a select few people (person?) who had posed as someone they weren't and posted inflammatory attacks.

Genuine lurkers are always welcome here and I apologize if when you started a thread you didn't get the response you were looking for. Please give us another chance. I think most of the bad elements are gone now and I'm sure the regulars here will be helpful to you.

I'm not at my best today, but I'd still do my best to offer you any support I can.

I just wanted to say hi, and I'm glad there is this place! I know I will have many questions and will need support through all of this. I posted for the first time today and had a good response back to me. I have never been unfaithful until now, my first husband did stray, but that marriage was domed from the begining. This marriage is good but we do have issues and at this point in my life I'm tried of being the one who always gives in. I want to be happy and my lover has said that's all he wants "is for me to be happy". I do have one thing - I'm not sure what all of the abbrievations mean, is there a place that can help me understand them? Sorry and thanks I look forward to more conversations with this site.

Thanks for the welcome mat! I am 26 and in the process of a D and have recently started seeing someone (he's 44) who is in a committed live-in relationship. My D was not caused by the relationship, but caused the relationship to happen. Need more ugly details? He is my boss and owns the company I work for, I know that is horrible and I know what a risk I am taking, but it is something that happened and I am very happy. He tells me he is leaving his GF, but I don't know exactly when that will be and I really don't care. I am happy with what we have now. I think some times it scares me more for him to leave than for me to have my safety net of his live-in. Oh well, guess those emotions go along with the D.

Looking forward to having someone to finally talk to about this.

I think technically, I am still a newbie - I posted a while back about my situation. Basically, I'm in LTR and have been involved with a MM for about, gosh, 4 months (!!), still non-physical due to distance. My initial posting was regarding our first period of NC and just the A process in general, from which I received many kind, thoughtful and non judgmental replies. Just as a brief update, MM’s child was born and all are healthy. We have resumed contact as before…and I had fully prepared myself to accept an ending. Still, the process is bittersweet. And even though I don’t post often, just reading can be a comfort.

Thank you for your welcome. I first posted a couple of days ago, but here's my situation. I am in a LDEMA, have been for almost ten months. I love my husband, but the EMA started when we were having serious marital trouble and I was weak and succumbed to temptation. I have a great friendship and an amazing sexual connection with my OM, who is also married. Neither of us want to leave our spouses, so I am trying to enjoy this without getting caught. But, this has added so much to my life that I do not want it to end, even though I know it inevitably will. I am glad that there is a board like this, because I have told no one about my EMA.
